PUBLIC SAFETY ALERT: According to ACR Health, street drug ‘Super Mario’ has hit Central New York. It contains carfentanil, a synthetic opioid approximately 10,000 times more potent than morphine and 100 times more potent than fentanyl.

These substances can come in several forms, including powder, blotter paper, tablets, patch, and spray. Some forms can be absorbed through the skin or accidentally inhaled. Symptoms occur within minutes of exposure and include respiratory depression or arrest, drowsiness, disorientation, sedation, pinpoint pupils, and clammy skin.

In cases of suspected exposure, it is important to administer NARCAN (Naloxone) and call 911 immediately. If inhaled, move the victim to fresh air. If ingested and the victim is conscious, wash out the victim’s eyes and mouth with cool water. NARCAN (Naloxone) is an antidote for opioid overdose. Immediately administering NARCAN can reverse an overdose of carfentanil, fentanyl, or other opioids, although multiple doses of may be required. Continue to administer a dose every 2-3 minutes until the individual is breathing on their own for at least 15 minutes or until EMS arrives.
Over-the-counter NARCAN is a nasal spray. It is important to know that administering NARCAN will NOT harm someone who is not experiencing an overdose.

NARCAN is available over-the-counter at most pharmacies and can also be obtained free through programs of New York and Vermont Health Departments.
