Damn!! Unfortunately it’s not difficult to believe. That exact scenario has played out thousands of times around the country in recent years. I’m constantly preaching to my 22-year-old son to never take anything he comes across from a friend or acquaintance.

fricking tragic!

RIP. Fentanyl is crazy. Narcan is legal over-the-counter now. I tell every adult - especially those with risk-taking-aged kids to keep some on hand at all times. You never know.

Could be legit, either way folks, you can't trust anything you didn't make yourself if you didn't get from a pharmacy. It's just not safe.

Anybody caught selling that crap, goes up for attempted murder or murder, as the situation deems. I hate drug dealers.

I have one trying to get into med school. Straight arrow but this scares me to death. UCF has a Narcan dispenser about every 100 feet, it seems.

That sucks. I've only ever taken adderall when I was prescribed but honestly it was very useful in college for last minute all night studying and getting assignments done. But frick buying it from some shady dealer.

Prayers out to the family

Never take it from a friend or acquaintance until they take it first. Give it a cool half hour and then you’re good to go.

Beats the hell out of taking anything from a stranger.

You're missing the point. I'm anti-Big Pharma but what the person was saying is that if you at least get a prescription, you're not going to be given something purposely laced with fentanyl.
