No, not cocaine tainted with fentanyl, it’s heroin that gets tainted with fentanyl. They’re both opiates, so both will satisfy the junkie’s craving, but fentanyl is much more powerful so if the junkie thinks they are shooting heroin and it’s 50% fentanyl, then they are dead.

Seems to be mostly stupid drug dealers who are doing the cutting, because fentanyl is cheaper and easier to get than real heroin. Of course if the junkies die this is not a sustainable long-term business plan, but most drug dealers are not business majors.

That’s what happened to my nephew in Ohio last year.
One day out of the rehab center, and one big shot of fenty.
RIP.

Heroin is far more potent than fentanyl.

Cocaine is very much being cut with fentanyl. About one third of the cocaine overdose deaths last year were from users ingesting cocaine laced with fentanyl.
