If you are going to use drugs- be fentanyl smart

be fentanyl smart
 
Lane County is seeing a dramatic increase in drug overdoses. Much of this increase is due to Fentanyl, a powerful synthetic opioid that has no taste or smell. It can be found in pills sold as Xanax, Adderall, Vicodon, OxyContin or others or in powders sold as cocaine, MDMA (ecstasy, molly), and heroin. Fentanyl can cause a loss of breathing within moments. Do not trust pills that are not from a pharmacy. The Mental Health and Wellness Center is offering free fentanyl test strips. Come by bldg. 18, room 101 to get your LifeLine Carekit: Your Toolbox for Safer Drug Use.
