The local picture has bucked the trend of drug deaths nationally and across the wider region.
The number of suspected drug -related deaths in Forth Valley in 2023 rose by one from the previous year, to 49.The Stirling figures appear to buck the trend experienced in the wider Forth Valley, and also the rest of Scotland.
Chief Inspector Sarah McArthur, local area commander in Stirling, said: “The number of drugs deaths has decreased from 19 to 11. It’s a positive result obviously - however, we definitely won’t become complacent with this and will work towards reducing that again. Police representatives said: “In terms of Naloxone, we do still record the amount of times we use Naloxone. I would stress though that it’s one factor and we would never allude to the fact that it’s the cause of the reduction. It’s just one of the factors we’ve brought in that came in last year and just one of those things we’re using for reduction in the partnership working that we do.
Police representatives replied: “We’re just saying that Naloxone alone isn’t responsible for the reduction in drug deaths, there’s a whole range of preventative activity for all uses over Scotland and Stirling that will be responsible - but my point is I don’t want to claim Naloxone is a great factor in that, it’s just one of numerous preventative activities that collectively will be partly responsible - but again the measurement of that would be difficult.
