(KOKH FOX 25) Oklahoma State University is holding a statewide campaign to educate parents and young adults about fentanyl poisoning.
The 'One Pill Can Kill' campaign is in conjunction with the DEA to spread awareness about the alarming rise of deaths related directly to fentanyl poisoning.
According to the DEA, fentanyl is a synthetic opioid that is about 100 times more potent than morphine. They say the dangerous drug is being mixed in with other illicit drugs to increase its potency and is often pressed into pills made to look like legitimate prescription opioids.
