NDEWS and the American College of Medical Toxicology (ACMT) are collaborating to develop a capability to identify emerging drugs and drug trends encountered by medical toxicologists during patient consultations and toxicology evaluations. Using data from the Toxicology Investigators Consortium (ToxIC), ACMT will highlight cases involving novel and emerging exposures in approximately 35 sites across the U.S. The first issue of ToxIC Brief highlights the methodology to be used to identify novel and emerging exposures. The following issues will highlight exposures related to synthetic opioids, stimulants, and other drugs.
