Guelph police found the man unresponsive and administered naloxone, but he was later pronounced dead in hospital.
Officials are urging drug users to reduce their risk by carrying the overdose-reversing drug naloxone and never using drugs alone.
They’re also urging people to use the overdose prevention site at the Guelph Community Health Centre. Since opening two months ago, the site has seen about 430 visits.
Waterloo Region Integrated Drugs Strategy also urged residents to never use drugs alone.
The Wellington Guelph Drug Strategy has been contacted for further comment.
