Following recent cases of anthrax in European injecting drug users, Health Protection Agency in the United Kingdom have published Anthrax: information for drug users and drug workers.

The documents are detailed templates for an information leaflet aimed at heroin users, and for an information poster.

They are in Word and Powerpoint format so that they can be amended for local use. Amendments can include addition of a local logo, local information on services, or any other suitable changes to the templates. Any factual or medical information should only be amended with care.

These materials were adapted from information produced by Scottish Drugs Forum in association with Health Protection Scotland in 2010.
