Drug dealer rakes in £400-a-day selling super-strength Indian pills after doctors crack down on number of Valium prescriptions
VALIUM addicts have been forced to turn to the black market after Government guidelines put GPs under pressure to lower the number of prescriptions of the drug.
RUTHLESS drug dealers are cashing in on a bid to cut the number of Valium addicts by importing a super-strength version from India.
Government guidelines have put GPs under increasing pressure to lower the number of prescriptions of the drug – dubbed vallies – handed out each year.
But this has forced addicts to turn to the black market in a bid to get their fix.
And underworld dealers in Scotland are raking in fortunes flogging imported pills known as Indian Whites.
A Sunday Mail investigation has revealed a surge in the amount of Indian Whites being sold in Glasgow.
And we can expose one dealer who admits customers are “bouncing off the walls” after taking them.
Drug dealer Dee Dollin rakes in more than £400 a day selling the pills.
Ex-con Dollin runs his illegal business from his flat in Closeburn Street – just yards from Police Scotland’s Saracen Street office in Possilpark.
He admitted to undercover reporters that the drought in regular valium has boosted sales.
We looked on last week as Dollin kept watch for police at the entrance to his dingy flat as he dealt to a steady stream of customers throughout the day.
Skulking in the doorway before fetching the drugs from his locked flat, Dollin sold 19 bags of 10 tablets at £10 each before lunchtime.
He bragged to our team: “I think these are from India and some people have said they’re also coming in from Pakistan.
“Folk around here tell me they love them but some are saying they’re bouncing off the walls with them.”
When asked if they were selling well, Dollin boasted: “This is the 19th packet I’ve done this morning.”
Guidelines put in place across the UK in 2007 say long-term prescribing of Valium can cause serious harm. Doctors have been told to gradually reduce prescription doses for addicts to zero over a short period.
It is part of the Government’s drive to tackle the issue after decades of concerns about the number of patients becoming hooked on diazepam.
In February, public health minister Anna Soubry said the Government were looking at the scale of the problem to see how they can support addicts.
She said: “Some GPs have simply not been following the guidelines from their own professional bodies.
“They have been over-prescribing these drugs year after year.”
Last year, it was claimed that doctors were still writing more than 11million prescriptions for benzodiazepines a year and more than a million people have been taking them for most of their adult lives.
The Scottish Government said: “Our drugs strategy – backed by cross-party support – aims to ensure that those who need treatment for their drug problem get it.
“We have invested record amounts in frontline drug services to help people recover from problem drug use – £30.3million in 2013/14, an increase of more than 20 per cent since 2006/7.”
