About this listen

Hosted by Dotty Wellman, this episode explores why fentanyl revolutionized the opioid crisis. With potency 50-100 times greater than morphine, fentanyl's synthetic nature made it easy to manufacture and distribute, completely disrupting traditional drug markets. The episode examines fentanyl's molecular chemistry, its rapid infiltration into all drug supplies, the resulting explosion in overdose deaths, and the unique challenges it presents for detection and treatment. Wellman explains how fentanyl transformed recreational drug use from manageable risk to potentially lethal with every exposure.
