Fentanyl Deaths: A National Crisis


By now you have most likely heard of Fentanyl and the astounding number of deaths associated to this drug. But, do you know what fentanyl is? It’s a synthetic opioid that is responsible for thousands of deaths across the country. Fentanyl is up to 50 times more potent than heroin and is often mixed with other drugs, making it even more deadly. The problem is that many people have no idea what fentanyl looks like because it is often masked in other substances. So if it is masked in other drugs, how do you know what to look for?
