Previously healthy man in his 20s dies in tragic drug trial for new pain med. Important to understand, as lots of misinformation online. This was NOT a synthetic marijuana compound.

Here is the best reporting on this terrible situation.

Five other men are still in a stable condition after testing the pain-relief drug, although doctors fear three may have suffered irreversible brain damage
