Durban - Parents are being warned of a new, synthetic drug, that has made its way into schools in the Durban south area. The drug, known as Wiz can be bought legally over the counter at most shops that sell tobacco, however according to the warning on the packet, it is not fit for human consumption.
Sam Pillay of the Anti-Drug Forum based in Chatsworth, said he received a call from a principal at a high school in Merebank after a pupil collapsed. He said while Wiz was not entirely new, it was concerning as it was unclear what the teens were adding to it to get the "high" or "goofed". Pillay said new drugs on the market have different effects on different people. He added that he believed Wiz was mixed with Methamphetamine or Crystal Meth.
