May 9 marks National Fentanyl Awareness Day, dedicated to increasing awareness on the harmful effects of fentanyl, a highly potent synthetic opioid that is frequently found in illegal drugs.

This day serves as a platform to inform the public on the dangers of fentanyl, sharing stories of those impacted by fentanyl while also highlighting the resources available for those battling addiction.
Due to the severity of the public health threat posed by fentanyl, it is crucial to raise awareness on its dangers. National Fentanyl Awareness Day provides a valuable opportunity to achieve that goal.
