Police in Lorain, Ohio, shared a photo of a seized fentanyl pill pressed with what appears to look like the word “Tylenol.”
The Lorain Police Department shared a photo of a seized pill that was pressed to appear as the word “Tylenol” on it but was later determined to be Fentanyl. Authorities in Ohio warned the public about recently seized pills made of fentanyl and cocaine but disguised to look like Tylenol or other over-the-counter medication.
"We would like to advise the public to always be cautious when handling medication, even if it appears to be over-the-counter medication," the Lorain Police DepartmentThe police department said other pills seized were disguised to look like Metoprolol — a non-controlled blood-pressure medication — but were later determined to be cocaine.
"Clearly, in that this has been seized in the process of two different investigations and with two different substances, two different narcotics, this may be a trend that is somewhat regular or somewhat being used right now to traffic drugs," Morris said. Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid that can be up to 100 times stronger than morphine, according to the U.S.
