"Rainbow" Fentanyl
A new drug trend is emerging in the United States: brightly colored Fentanyl pills and powders. These drugs are brightly colored like chalk or candy, potentially making them more attractive to children and young people.However, don't be fooled- these pills are deadly. In some states, drug dealers are disguising this deadly poison in candy boxes as Nerds, Skittles, Sweet Tarts, and Smarties.
Just 2 milligrams of Fentanyl - the equivalent to 10 to 15 grains of table salt - can be lethal.
