Law enforcement agencies across the state are warning parents and children about a new form of fentanyl that is now showing up in Arizona.
The dangerous pills are coming in various colors that look like candy, called “rainbow fentanyl”. Officials believe this new form of fentanyl is being developed to make it more appealing to our youth.
Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid that is 50 time more potent than heroin and 100 times more potent than morphine. Just two milligrams of fentanyl is considered a lethal dose.
