3:34Now PlayingOne of the country's leading experts in drug abuse is warning of a deadly crisis fuelled by a cocktail of substances said to be more addictive than heroin and "ten times stronger than Fentanyl" - which can cost just 10p a pill.
According to UK Addiction Treatment Centres, the number of people seeking help for benzo addiction has also trebled in the last three years.
Some experts say that rise is linked to a crisis in the country's mental health services forcing some people to self-medicate illegally rather than wait weeks, months or years for support.
