Between 1991 and 1992 there was a four-fold increase in drug-related deaths in Glasgow. Comparing records of the drug-related deaths for November 1990-October 1991 and November 1991-October 1992 in Edinburgh and Glasgow, it was found that the increase in Glasgow was statistically significant and that heroin, often mixed with other drugs, which most often included temazepam, diazepam and alcohol, was implicated in the increase in deaths in Glasgow. A number of the deceased had been prescribed temazepam or diazepam. Discussed are the hazards of drug mixing and the possibility that the use of buprenorphine by drug injectors previously had kept the number of overdoses relatively low.
1991年至1992年间，格拉斯哥与毒品相关的死亡人数增加了四倍。对比1990年11月至1991年10月以及1991年11月至1992年10月爱丁堡和格拉斯哥与毒品相关的死亡记录，发现格拉斯哥的死亡人数增加具有统计学意义，且海洛因（常与其他药物混合，其中最常见的包括替马西泮、地西泮和酒精）与格拉斯哥死亡人数的增加有关。许多死者曾被开过替马西泮或地西泮。文中讨论了药物混合的危害，以及此前吸毒者使用丁丙诺啡可能使过量用药人数相对较低的情况。
