Snorted/sniffed, smoked, orally by pill or tablet, spiked onto blotter paper, patches, sold alone or in combination with heroin and other substances, has been identified in fake pills, mimicking pharmaceutical drugs such as oxycodone. Fentanyl can be absorbed into the skin through simple touch which is almost always accidental, as this is not a method of consumption.
Similar to other opioid analgesics, fentanyl produces effects such as: relaxation, euphoria, pain relief, sedation, confusion, drowsiness, dizziness, nausea and vomiting, urinary retention, pupillary constriction, and respiratory depression.
Overdoses and poisoning can cause stupor, changes in pupil size, clammy skin, cyanosis, coma, and respiratory failure leading to death. The presence of a triad of symptoms such as coma, pinpoint pupils, and respiratory depression strongly suggests opioid intoxication.
DEA estimates that 48% of drugs being seized laced with fentanyl, and of all fentanyl being seized, contains xylazine. Xylazine is a powerful tranquilizer for large animals. Xylazine renders Narcan useless. Furthermore, Nitazenes, being up to 43x stronger than Fentanyl, are considered along with xylazine to be a NEW, emerging epidemic. These substances are designed to kill.
