FACTS...

Let’s talk

FROM THE UNITED STATES DRUG ENFORCEMENT AGENCY

In calendar year 2023, DEA seized more than 77 million fentanyl pills and nearly 12,000 pounds of fentanyl powder nationwide. This is the most fentanyl seized by DEA in a single year. It amounts to more than 386 million deadly doses of fentanyl—enough to kill every single American in the United States.

​

IF WE DON'T TALK ABOUT IT, WHO WILL??

 

Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid that is approximately 50 times more potent than heroin and 100 times more potent than morphine. It is inexpensive, widely available, highly addictive, and comes in a variety of colors, shapes and forms – including powder and pills.  Drug traffickers are increasingly mixing fentanyl with other illicit drugs to drive addiction and create repeat business. Many victims of fentanyl poisoning were unaware they ingested fentanyl.    

​

According to CDC’s National Center for Health Statistics there were an estimated 107,543 drug overdose deaths in the United States during 2023 with 70 percent of those deaths involving synthetic opioids like fentanyl. Only two milligrams -- the equivalent of a couple of grains of salt or sand -- of fentanyl is considered a potentially lethal dose.

​

Fentanyl is the LEADING KILLER of Americans ages 18-45 with children under 14 years of age dying faster than any other age group. READ THAT AGAIN.
