Fentanyl continues to drive overdose deaths in the U.S., but many people who use drugs don’t realize how prevalent it is in the drug supply. What’s one way to reduce their risk? Increase access to drug checking equipment like fentanyl test strips. These identify when fentanyl is present in a drug sample and can help people make safer decisions, like choosing to use less of a drug or not at all. Making drug checking equipment widely available can save lives.
