Fentanyl and Opioid Epidemic Information
Whether you’re talking to high school students or adults, the “Fentanyl” banner will be a valuable resource. It explains what fentanyl is and its role in the current opioid epidemic. Fentanyl is a man made synthetic opioid that was made to help extreme pain from cancer, surgery or as an anesthetic. It is one of the most powerful drugs on the market. Over 100 times more powerful than morphine and 50 times more powerful than heroin. The drug was not meant to be used outside of a controlled medical setting. However, illicit overseas laboratories are producing fentanyl and dangerous variations of this potent drug . And it is hitting the streets. As a result, it’s causing overdoses and death across the country. Most users don’t even realize they are taking Fentanyl. It is commonly found mixed with heroin and other drugs as well as made into counterfeit prescription pills.
The banner details that overdose with Fentanyl is quick and deadly. Overdose can even begin before the drug is fully injected. Overdose victims will have difficulty breathing, clammy skin, loss of consciousness, seizures, pinpoint pupils, low blood pressure and slowed or no heartbeat. Synthetic opioids like Fentanyl deaths have risen 540% in the past 3 years. Fentanyl is the number one cause of drug overdose deaths, the first drug to ever surpass heroin.
To compound the problem Fentanyl is cheaper, easier to hide from law enforcement, and stronger. A much smaller dose of Fentanyl can have the same effects as a larger dose of other opioids. Which is why it’s so deadly. There are also at least 15 known analogues or variations of the drug. With these new drugs comes new dangerous side effects and more dangers.
