We are beginning to see Medetomidine in the Fentanyl in our area. This is a potent sedative. The Narcan/Naloxone first responders administer will have no effect on the Medetomindine.

We are just over a quarter of the calendar year and EMS and Law Enforcement have already responded to more than 30 overdose calls. We are on pace for 120 overdose calls this year, and those are just the ones reported.

Please don't hesitate to call if you believe someone may be overdosing! With the potential for Medetomidine mixed in the Fentanyl, minutes may be the difference in life or death on these calls.
