 Yeah, cannot export it like 15 years ago. Doesn't really matter it's shit compared to heroin in terms of duration and rush. Now gotta pay top dollar to get unlaced black tar.  
 Oh, the newer drug is 'tranq'. Wouldn't recommend that you try it though since it induces tissue death in your extremities due to oxygen starvation. 
 Tranq is not a drug. It's a combo. It's just benzos and fent. Nothing new about retards mixing benzos and opies together. The tissue death is likely due to impurities. Or it's propaganda aimed at cowardly and gullible folk.  I just like to smoke black tar once in a while. It's good enough as it is. 
 
 No, it's not. Tranq is Xylazine, a veterinary sedative. It's correct that it's mixed with fent.

There's a writeup on the necrotic skin ulcers it causes here:

Quote:

In the areas with a high prevalence of the use of xylazine mixed with fentanyl or heroin, abscesses, and painful skin ulcers are very often reported. The mechanism is thought to be due to its direct vasoconstricting effect on local blood vessels and the resultant decreased skin perfusion. Prolonged use can lead to decreased perfusion and impaired wound healing, leading to higher chances of infection of these ulcers.



 
 I saw a vice report about it and I have big doubts about anyone wanting to use that. I thought it was a benzo. I'd try it with proper dosages. That article is a joke. Sample size 1. IV user. Same myth was wide spread about desomorphine. And similar shit said about cocaine and booze by pussy ass niggaz who never do cocaine. It's bad taste to tell not to try something if you have no experience with such
