Investigations continue into contents of dangerous blue pill

Youth workers face a wait to find out the contents of a new pill which led to a teenager being hospitalised last month.

The little blue pill has been causing concern among the Royal Borough's Drug and Alcohol Action Team (DAAT) since a teenager in Maidenhead required treatment after taking the unfamiliar drug with cannabis about two weeks ago.

It is not yet known whether the small pill contains illegal drugs or is a 'legal high', and police have taken it for toxicology tests.

The DAAT has been told to expect results back in about two weeks.
