Most teens say they trust their parents or caregivers more than anyone when it comes to information and advice about drugs. So, talk to the teens in your life about fentanyl and about how experimenting with drugs can hurt them and their future. Remind them that true friends look out for one another and won't pressure them to take unsafe risks.

Here are a few ways to start the conversation:

➡ “Have you heard about a drug called fentanyl? What have you heard?”

➡ “I read an article/saw a video/heard a report about fentanyl and wanted to talk with you about it.”

➡ “If you ever have questions about fentanyl — or any drug — talk to me. It’s my job to help you stay safe and healthy.”
