A warning has been issued by police in Glasgow after drugs were stolen from a dental practice in the city.
Police issued a statement saying that the medication could cause serious, potentially fatal side-effects, and appealed for information about the theft, which occurred at Thornliebank Health Centre on Kennishead Road.
Police have confirmed that 50 ampules of Lignospan, 50 ampules of Scandonest and 12 ampules of Articane, were stolen from the practice on the 13th November. The break-in was reported by members of staff at the practice at 8.55am yesterday.
