(USGovernment-News.Com, February 02, 2016 ) Nashville, TN -- Alabama Local News reports that Tennessee is experiencing a spike in overdose deaths caused by synthetic drug use. The two main culprits are synthetic marijuana, K2, which is being marketed under the street name "Fruity Pebbles". City of Winchester Police Chief warns that just one lung full of the drug can cause blackouts and organ failure. Fake Percocet pills which are being sold on the street have caused numerous overdoses, due to the fact that the active ingredients are not oxycodone and acetaminophen, like authentic Percocet. Instead, the highly addictive and dangerous drug Fentanyl is the main ingredient. In just two weeks the city has experienced 11 overdoses, one fatality, one serious accident, and life-threatening injuries.

"These kinds of drug trends signify a dangerous lack of understanding among impressionable drug users. Some believe themselves above the consequences of illicit drug abuse, others are lulled into a false sense of safety by their peers. Whatever the cause, it is up to us as a community to protect ourselves and each other from the dangers of substance abuse. Spreading education and not stigmas is the key to ending the battle against addiction once and for all."
