(USGovernment-News.Com, December 09, 2016 ) Miami, FL -- The Miami Herald reports that authorities are enforcing a crackdown on Carfentanil, a lethal opioid which is up to 5,000 times stronger than heroin. The sudden upsurge of Carfentanil directly correlates with an increase in drug overdose deaths throughout Miami-Dade County. Throughout 2016, 53 drug seizures have included Carfentanil with the majority finding it combined with other substances.
Miami Drug Rehab has directly seen the impact of Carfentanil throughout Miami-Dade and across Florida. As a provider of heroin rehab in Miami, the leading addiction recovery facility understands the dangerous implications of Carfentanil's presence in Miami-Dade County.
A representative of Miami Drug Rehab comments: "Where Fentanyl directly contributed to the rapid increase in heroin-related overdose deaths, Carfentanil will only compound the tragic epidemic. Carfentanil is intended to be used as a tranquilizer for large animals; it is over 5,000 times stronger than heroin. That it is being introduced into already dangerous batches of illicit drugs has lead to further tragedy and we need to do something about it. Realize that there's no such thing as a safe way to abuse substance and seek the help you need. It is out there."
