Estazolam
The intake of various herbal medicine or unknown remedies to help cure sleep deprivation are no different from the usual health-related issues we have. But as far as medication is concerned, unknown meds should still come with the necessary prescription to avoid problems in the long run which may even cost you your life.
Such is the issue of the illegal herbal pill called estazolam which had claimed the life of Michael Berggen who died in a single vehicle roll-over two years ago. The only thing the Canadian authorities have gathered is that it is dangerous but as far as origin is concerned, they are just dumbfounded right now.
The veteran trucker and father of four was making his first run of the morning on Boxing Day, 2006, when he drove out of Hines Creek, 560 kilometres northwest of Edmonton, lost control of his tandem truck, hit a snowbank and rolled. He wasn’t wearing his seatbelt and died at the scene.
The medical examiner later discovered estazolam in his blood - a rare, powerful tranquilizer which can cause drowsiness and dizziness. It’s not clear what role the drug played in his death, if any, but Provincial Court Judge McIntosh presided over a fatality inquiry last week and is expected to report his findings in the coming months.
