SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/ANN): A 16-year-old male Singaporean etomidate abuser was admitted to a Singapore Prison Service drug rehabilitation centre (DRC) on Nov 27 for two months under the Misuse of Drugs Act (MDA), after he was caught for etomidate-related offences on three occasions.
The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) and Health Sciences Authority (HSA) said on Dec 8 that he is the first etomidate abuser admitted to a DRC since etomidate and its analogues were classified as Class C controlled drugs under the MDA on Sept 1.
