Denver public health officials are warning residents about a recent increase in deadly overdoses, specifically those linked to fentanyl, and a quickly changing drug supply.
Provisional data from 2021 indicates that fentanyl is present in nearly 50% of all accidental drug-related deaths in Denver, according to the Denver Department of Public Health and Environment.
Fentanyl is an opioid known for its potency. It can be up to 50 times more potent than heroin and up to 100 times more potent than morphine, according to DDPHE.
