Police say a 16 year old girl from Peel is in hospital after taking what’s believed to be prescription medicine.
Officers say her condition is not believed to be life-threatening at this time, but it appears some young people are using the medication recreationally.
The Western Neighbourhood Policing Team says that’s a dangerous activity – and it’s now investigating.
If you have any information that could help, you can contact Police Headquarters on 631212.
