27 March: Australian preparedness for nitazenes

We were joined for this webinar by two international guest speakers, Prof Eamon Keenan and Nicki Killeen from HSE Ireland. They discussed a cluster of overdoses that occurred in Ireland in late 2023 after an influx of nitazenes on the drug market. They will share their learnings from this period with a view to informing Australian preparedness for this emerging harm.

International guest speakers, from HSE Ireland:

  • Prof Eamon Keenan (National Clinical Lead, Addiction Services)
  • Nicki Killeen (Emerging Drug Trends Project Manager)

Panellists: A/Prof Shalini Arunogiri (Turning Point, MARC), Molly Howes (AIVL) and Dr Thanjira Jiranantakan (NSW Health).
