The number of opioid deaths has been steadily growing in Wisconsin, a fact that has been shown in data since the early 2
Those deaths, in large part, are due to the prevalence and popularity of mixing fentanyl into other drugs, such as cocaine and heroin000s.
Opioids are a class of drugs that alleviate pain and may produce a pleasurable effect for their takers. They can be used in several different ways, including a prescription after an injury or surgery to help with pain. But oftentimes, they’re used in nonmedical ways, to cope with painful emotions, trauma or other life experiences.The drugs are risky because the brain and body can develop a tolerance to the drugs quickly, meaning more is needed to feel the same effect.
Fentanyl is often mixed into products sold illegally, which allows for the sales of smaller quantities with stronger effects. Dealers can cut their costs by adding bulking agents to fentanyl, too, making it much cheaper to buy than heroin and a reason for the dramatic increase in opioid deaths. Fentanyl can be mixed into heroin, but it is also commonly mixed with cocaine.
"I think that the emergence of fentanyl and the prevalence of fentanyl throughout the illicit drug supply is really the primary reason that we continue to see a rise in opioid related deaths in our state, as well as nationally," he said.Data from the state’s Department of Health Services shows that there were, in fact, 1,421 deaths in the state that year linked to opioid use.
“A lot of the programs started during the pandemic are still going, even though the pandemic is long over.”
