Thus, the lethal dose of fentanyl comes out to 3,000 micrograms or just 3 mg. To paint a picture in your mind, 3 mg is equivalent to a few grains of sand, a pinch of salt at most. Even police officers and first responders put themselves in harm’s way when responding to the scene of a suspected fentanyl overdose. There is no guarantee that they won’t come into contact with the drug accidentally. Departments across the country are instituting new guidelines to deal with these hazardous new scenarios.

If this weren’t alarming enough, fentanyl has given rise to an even worse variant in recent years. Enter carfentanil: an elephant tranquilizer opioid that is 10,000 times more potent than morphine. An amount smaller than a single grain of sand is all it takes to kill a full-grown adult. It is no wonder why fentanyl and its offshoots are the deadliest opioids currently in existence.
