Fentanyl

Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid that is 50–100 times more potent than morphine, often lethal with as little as 2 milligrams. Drug traffickers disguise pills that include dangerous fentanyl to look like legitimate prescription drugs, and even candy to target children. The only safe medications are ones that come from licensed and accredited medical professionals.
