Man (25) dies after receiving roommate medication | Abroad

According to Bild, this is Mohamad S. The man’s father told the German newspaper: “My son only had sebum bumps in his chest that were removed.” The man had called his father and said he had been given medicine and that it was making him tired. “He could have lived if they had taken care of him at night.” The man would almost be allowed to go home after the routine procedure.

The man’s roommate has cancer, but the mistaken drug was not a cancer drug. Mohamad is said to have been administered methadone, a very strong painkiller with a narcotic effect. According to Jellinek, it has the same effect as heroin. How it happened that he was administered the drug is unclear.

After side effects occurred in the man, he was transferred to intensive care and then transferred to the neurological department, a hospital spokesman said. He passed away at the end of last week.

The hospital speaks of “tragic circumstances.” The public prosecutor has opened an investigation.
