Be Prepared to Treat Bleeding From "Superwarfarin"-Laced Synthetic Cannabinoids

Severe bleeding linked to anticoagulant-laced synthetic cannabinoids may land some patients in your emergency department.
CDC is warning about these marijuana alternatives...fake pot, K2, Spice, etc...being laced with brodifacoum, a "superwarfarin" rat poison whose anticoagulant effects can last for months.
There are already over a hundred cases of serious bleeding...and some deaths. Most are in Illinois...but also in IN, MD, MO, and other states.
