The UK has had the warning for several years. However, few doctors pay attention to these and patients are seldom informed. I have shared this with others in groups I'm in particularly if they mention they're also on an opioid.
Unfortunately gab is often found in those who die of overdoses who are also taking opioids so there a moves to limit access to gab. That is a WONDERFUL thing, except some doctors are interpreting that as, refusing to issue refills, so some are being forced to stop cold turkey which is dangerous and miserable.
