Gardai have recorded less than 25 drink spiking incidents so far this year.
That compared to 10 such cases in 2020.
Officers say they're also yet to confirm a single case of injection spiking, despite recent complaints.
It's after a number of women took to social media detailing puncture marks they received on nights out that left them feeling disorientated.
At the start of the month one UCC Student claimed her drink had been spiked on a night out in Limerick and this led to UCC Students Union mounting a ‘Take Back The Spike’ demonstration at the amphitheatre in UCC urging businesses in the city to do all they can to prevent incidents of needle spiking.
