苏格兰2025年毒品相关死亡人数达1,133例，较2024年增加116例，增幅为11%1。其中硝基苯酮等合成阿片类药物的死亡人数增长最为迅速，从2024年的76例跃升至247例，增幅超过200%1。阿片类物质继续成为最致命的毒品类型，占所有毒品死亡的78%1。
为应对日益严峻的毒品死亡危机，苏格兰政府宣布将在下月在格拉斯哥开设毒品检测服务，用户可以提交毒品进行快速检测并获得伤害减少建议1。该服务已在阿伯丁和邓迪获得批准，爱丁堡还有第四个服务点正在筹备中1。
Scotland recorded 1,133 drug-related deaths in 2025, representing an 11 percent increase of 116 deaths compared to 2024.1 The surge has been primarily driven by a synthetic opioid class known as nitazenes, which saw deaths more than double from 76 cases in 2024 to 247 cases in 2025.1 Opioids remain the deadliest category of drugs overall, accounting for 78 percent of all drug-related fatalities.1
The escalating toll reflects deeply entrenched disparities in Scotland's drug crisis. Male deaths increased by 19 percent year-on-year, with an average age at death of 46 years.1 The mortality burden falls disproportionately on the poorest communities, where drug-related death rates are 15 times higher than in the least deprived areas.1
In response to the crisis, the Scottish government has announced the launch of a new drug-checking service in Glasgow next month, which will expand existing programs already operating in Aberdeen and Dundee.1 A fourth service point is being prepared in Edinburgh.1 The service will allow users to submit drugs for rapid testing and receive harm reduction advice.1
