Social media users have launched the #StopRed campaign, calling on Ghanaian authorities to take urgent action against the widespread abuse of high-dose Tablet Red, a dangerously potent form of tramadol.
The movement, which has gained traction across various platforms, is demanding stricter regulations and enforcement to protect Ghanaian youth from the devastating effects of the drug.
Tramadol is a prescription painkiller, but its misuse has become a growing public health crisis in Ghana.
The 225mg Tablet Red, which contains dangerously high doses of the opioid, is not approved by Ghana's Food and Drugs Authority (FDA).
