We get it. Hearing about another new, dangerous synthetic drug is exhausting. "Warning fatigue" is real, and the community is tired of feeling hyper-vigilant. But we cannot afford to stop paying attention now.
Public health officials have issued warnings about Cychlorphine, an unregulated synthetic opioid making its way into the illicit drug supply. It is reportedly up to 10 times more potent than fentanyl and is being pressed into counterfeit pills made to look like legitimate prescriptions (such as Xanax, Adderall, or OxyContin).
The landscape of substance misuse is shifting fast, but our commitment to protecting Omaha won't tire out. Stay alert, stay prepared, and look out for one another. 💛
