DRUGS stolen from a Redditch chemist could kill if taken incorrectly, police have warned.

The medication was taken from the chemist in Woodrow Centre between 2.30-3.15pm on Thursday after a delivery.

Fifty-three packs of Carace of varying strength, 20 packs of Seroxat, three packs of red and yellow Adroxil capsules and 22 packs of Tagamet were taken.

A police spokesman said: "Obviously careless disposal of these tablets could result in serious injury and, in the extreme, death."

Other symptoms could include coma, vomiting and hypertension. Anyone with information can call Redditch police on 584888 or Crimestop-pers on 0800 555111.
