COMMUNITY NOTICE
The New Mexico Department of Health is warning people that there have been cases where fentanyl was sold by mistake as co***ne or methamphetamine. People should use fentanyl test strips when using stimulants.
Other substances, such as xylazine and medetomidine, have also been found in fentanyl. Naloxone may not stop the effects of these other substances, but it should still be given because it can reverse the effects of fentanyl and help restore breathing. The Illicit fentanyl supply can be very different from one batch to another. Some batches may be much stronger than others, and you cannot tell how strong fentanyl is just by looking at it. This can increase the risk of overdose.
To lower the risk of harm, people should carry naloxone, use small amounts, avoid mixing drugs, test substances, and have a trusted person nearby.
