Gardaí have warned drug users to be extra careful after a batch of drugs were stolen during a robbery of a pharmacy in Mullingar last night.
Among the drugs taken during the raid were Hydromorphane and Methadone injections, both of which are considered to be highly dangerous.
Gardaí this evening described the drugs as "highly potent" and warned that anyone injecting them could experience breathing difficulites.
Anyone who has taken the drugs is advised to get to a hospital as soon as possible.
