WARNING Counterfeit Opioid Tablets Contained Fentanyl Found in Arizona

Deadly synthetic opioids found in several Arizona cities

Several law enforcement agencies across Arizona, including Phoenix, Tucson and Yuma are alerting the public that street drugs containing deadly synthetic opioid fentanyl and carfentanil have been showing up across the state.

According to the national institute on drug abuse, fentanyl is 50 to 100 times more potent than morphine. Carfentanil is a sedative used for very large animals, such as elephants.

These pills may be sold on the street as oxycodone, and can be deadly. White Mountain Independent Link to Article
