The University of Houston announced a breakthrough that could be a life-saving tool against the opioid epidemic, a fentanyl vaccine.
After five years of testing and research, the University of Houston is announcing a breakthrough that could be a powerful, life-saving tool against the opioid epidemic."If the drug does not get into the brain, there are no effects. There are no euphoric effects, and there are no lethal affects as well," UH Research Associate Professor Colin Haile, PhD, said.
"They say to you, 'I actually don't use heroin. I specifically buy fentanyl.' The numbers are increasing, and it's a very large percentage. Many more people come in today saying they use fentanyl," Van Guilder said. "The fact that they're doing research to find these things gives us hope, because we have to do something. What we're doing today is not working," Van Guilder said.
