24 Fentanyl Synthetic opioid 10X more potent than morphine Legitimate use: severe, chronic pain Trade names: Actiq, Duragesic, and Sublimaze Binds opiate receptors, driving up dopamine levels, producing euphoria and relaxation
25 Fentanyl Most often administered via injection, transdermal patch, or in lozenge form
26 Fentanyl Potential risk of discarded patches or improperly stored lollipops
27 Abuse Potential
28 Illicit Fentanyl Production Produced in clandestine laboratories and mixed with (or substituted for) heroin in a powder form Mixing fentanyl with street-sold heroin or cocaine markedly amplifies potency and potential dangers Street names : Apache, China girl, China white, dance fever, friend, goodfella, jackpot, murder 8, TNT, as well as Tango and Cash
29 Illicit Fentanyl Analogues Alpha-methyl Fentanyl First illicit derivative to appear on the streets Very simple modification of the fentanyl structure ~200 times as potent as morphine Acetyl Fentanyl Implicated in numerous deaths ~five times more potent than morphine CDC recommendations Increased vigilance by public health agencies, emergency departments, state laboratories, medical examiners, and coroners If fentanyl immunoassay is positive additional confirmation testing should include fentanyl and its analogs, including acetyl fentanyl 3-Methyl Fentanyl Latest derivative introduced onto the streets Up to 3000 times as potent as morphine ACETYL FENTANYL
30 Color Drug Recognition Pure white (sold as Persian White), to light tan (sold as Synthetic Heroin), to light brown (sold as Mexican Brown) Brown color comes from lactose which has been heated and has caramelized slightly Texture Street samples range from light, fine powder to coarse, cake-like, and crumbly, resembling powdered milk Odor Occasional medicinal or chemical odor, but not characteristic Packaging Sold like heroin in small zip-lock plastic bags and bindles

34 We Are Not Alone Fatalities have increased in states reporting large increases in fentanyl seizures Two of the top five, Ohio and Maryland, both reported sharp increases in fentanyl-related deaths in 2014 Ohio: 92 in in 2014 Maryland: 58 in in 2014 Massachusetts currently investigating whether an abnormally sharp increase in opioid-related deaths in 2014 is attributable to fentanyl Florida recently reported 397 fentanyl fatalities in 2014, up from 185 in 2013
35 We Are Not Alone Maine*, 2015: 272 drug deaths, 31% more than in 2014 (208) Continues a multi-year rise in deaths due to heroin and illicit fentanyl, sometimes in combination with each other 20% more deaths due to illicit fentanyl and acetyl fentanyl July-Dec vs. Jan-June 5% more deaths due to heroin in same period Source: Marcella Sorg, PhD Margaret Chase Smith Policy Center, Univ. of Maine
36 More from Maine* 157/272 (58%) due either to heroin (107) and/or illicit fentanyl (74) or acetyl fentanyl (32) with a wide variety of co-intoxicant combinations with other drugs or alcohol 19 due to a combination of fentanyl and acetyl fentanyl Source: Marcella Sorg, PhD Margaret Chase Smith Policy Center, Univ. of Maine

39 Cleveland, OH We Are Not Alone Fentanyl deaths have risen since November 2014 The drug is clandestinely manufactured (not diverted from legitimate sources) and distributed by the same networks distributing heroin 2015: projected fentanyl deaths, more than double 2014 About half with heroin, a little less than half fentanyl alone and the rest fentanyl with something else Our fentanyl overdoses tend to be a bit younger than the typical heroin overdose and we are seeing slightly more women (~1/3) with a slight majority from suburban communities" Tom Gilson, MD Chief Medical Examiner
40 Latest from Cleveland 89 fentanyl deaths in 2015 with approximately half also having heroin detected January fentanyl deaths, 7 also having heroin We had our first fentanyl pill drug seizures this month AND THEY WERE MANUFACTURED TO LOOK LIKE OXYCODONE 30mg tablets. We think this was a result of oxycodone being more expensive than fentanyl in street sales. Might also give the false sense of comfort that a pharmaceutical pill is safe.
41 Pittsburgh, PA We Are Not Alone When you hear the phrase heroin overdose, be aware that the heroin could be almost anything. 2013: 8 fentanyl related deaths, almost exclusively diverted pharmaceutical material, primarily patches January 2014: 16 deaths in Allegheny County with several additional deaths in the surrounding counties Offending heroin actually a white powder that was 1:1 heroin:fentanyl, and distributed in only two ( Bud Ice & Theraflu ) of the many different stamp bags that were out in the community New kid on the block here is acetyl fentanyl No acetyl fentanyl associated deaths in cases so far in 2015 Karl Williams, MD Chief Medical Examiner
42 We Are Not Alone Alberta, Canada Population est. 4 million 2011: 6 fentanyl-related deaths, probably related to diverted prescription medication January-June 2015:145 fentanyl-related deaths Not related to diverted prescription fentanyl, but imported and illicit preparations Sometimes fentanyl is identified in isolation, many of the cases are combined with ethanol, cocaine, methamphetamine and/or heroin Jeffery Gofton, M.D. Chief Medical Examiner
43 Naloxone The Cleveland Experience Civilian distribution started in May 2013 Since then, ~250 saves with reasonable documentation (number could be higher) 2014: law enforcement started to administer with additional saves Heroin fatalities did not decline from 2013 to 2014 (but it did not continue to rise) 2015: slight drop in mortality (195 to ~180 deaths) but still substantially higher than a decade ago I see the bottom line as that the program is actually very successful but the problem is (for the time being) bigger than the solution.
