Protect yourself from a fentanyl overdose

Counterfeit pills laced with fentanyl are flooding the Pacific Northwest. In just one year, Oregon saw a 74% increase in fentanyl-related deaths.
Don’t take any pill that you do not directly get from your doctor or pharmacist. Pills received from friends or purchased online or from social media are not safe.
Fentanyl is tasteless, odorless, and too small to see with the naked eye. It’s extremely potent. An amount the size of two grains of sand is enough to cause a fatal overdose.
In Oregon, fentanyl is most commonly seen in blue, greenish, or pale colored counterfeit fills. There may be other colors. These pills may be marked as “M30”.

Know the Signs of a Fentanyl Overdose

Pinpoint pupils, slow, shallow, or no breathing, gurling or snoring, difficult to wake up or can’t wake, extreme drowsiness, cold and clammy skin.

Immediately call 9-1-1 if a person is found unconscious or an overdose is suspected.
