Fentanyl & Paraphernalia overdose: How These Drugs Impact Your Body?

In case of Page, fentanyl and drug paraphernalia was found in her home.

As per the Edge Treatment Center that is licensed by the California State Department of Health Care Services, and US federal law, drug paraphernalia is any device, item, or component of any type which is mainly meant or crafted for the purpose of production, compounding, transforming, obscuring, generating, processing, prepping, injecting, inhaling, consuming, or otherwise including a banned drug into our bodies.

Common Drugs Linked with Paraphernalia

• Marijuana/cannabis
• Cocaine
• Heroin and other opioids
• Methamphetamines
• Ecstasy
• Inhalants

What Is Fentanyl and Why Is It So Dangerous?

As per the United States Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), fentanyl is a potent synthetic opioid drug approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use as an analgesic (pain relief) and anesthetic. It is approximately 100 times more potent than morphine and 50 times more potent than heroin as an analgesic.

It is also known as Apace, China Girl, China Town, Dance Fever, and by other various names. It can be consumed through snorting, sniffing, smoking, or orally by pill or tablet. It could also be spiked onto blotter paper, patches or sold alone or in combination with heroin and other substances.

How Fentanyl Affects the Body and Mind

As per the National Institute on Drug Abuse, US, Fentanyl and other illegally produced synthetic opioids have played a major role in the overdose crisis in the United States since 2013.

Since about 2017, overdose deaths often involve use of multiple drugs. In many cases, fentanyl is one of these drugs. When fentanyl is mixed with other drugs, either on purpose or unknowingly, the combination can have more serious health effects.

Like other opioid pain relievers, fentanyl can cause a range of effects including relaxation, euphoria, pain relief, sedation, confusion, drowsiness, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, urinary retention, constricted pupils, and slowed breathing.

In cases of overdose, symptoms may include stupor, altered pupil size, cold and clammy skin, bluish discoloration (cyanosis), coma, and respiratory failure, which can be fatal. A combination of coma, pinpoint pupils, and respiratory depression is a strong indicator of opioid intoxication.

With interventions targeted towards improving maternal and child health along with quality and accessible health infrastructure, India has played a crucial role in the decline of global child mortality, especially in South Asia, according to a UN report today.

The UN Inter-agency Group for Child Mortality Estimation (UNIGME) Report 2025 highlighted that the country's sustained efforts in the last two decades in child health have led to significant outcomes in South Asia. They include:

• a 76 percent decline in under-five deaths since 1990 and a 68 percent drop since 2000
• the under-five death rate in the region fell from 92 deaths per 1,000 live births in 2000 to nearly 32 in 2024.

"India emerges as a leading global exemplar in the UN IGME 2025 report for accelerating child mortality reduction," JP Nadda, Union Health Minister, shared in a post on X.

"India’s focussed comprehensive approach on neonatal care has paved the way for eliminating preventable child deaths and securing healthy future for our children," he added.

India's Child Health Programs

In India, the UNIGME report showed that:

• under-five mortality rate reduced to 26.6 in 2024
• infant mortality fell to 23.3 per 1000 live births
• neonatal mortality rate dropped to 17

The report lauded India’s "continuum-of-care strategy" that has integrated sustained strengthening of a vibrant health system with commensurate expansion of its health infrastructure.

It also hailed demand-driven programmatic interventions in reducing preventable maternal and newborn mortality. These include:

• Janani Shishu Suraksha Karyakram (JSSK)
• Janani Suraksha Yojana (JSY), all of which are striving towards .
• Dedicated Maternal and Child Health (MCH) wings,
• Maternity Waiting Homes,
• Special Newborn Care Units (SNCUs),
• Newborn Stabilization Units (NBSUs),
• District Early Intervention Centres (DEICs).

Further, it noted that India’s commitment to improving newborn and child survival has also been reflected in continuous quality improvement initiatives such as the recently released guidelines on Facility-Based Newborn Care (FBNC) and

digital innovations such as Tele-SNCU (HUB & SPOKE model).

These efforts are complemented by hybrid skill-based learning modules on the safe and rational use of oxygen (including CPAP) and by the empowerment of mothers and caregivers to provide nurturing care to small and sick newborns.

"India is among the first few countries to set targets and release operational guidelines on Stillbirth Surveillance and response," the report said.

The UN noted that India’s experience shows that "sustained leadership, strategic investments, and strong collaboration with committed stakeholders have enabled a robust, scalable, and effective implementation framework targeted towards the achievement of the SDGs".

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman has announced in the Parliament that India is planning to launch universal health coverage for all by 2033.

India’s Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination drive that began a fortnight ago has already vaccinated nearly 3 lakh girls aged 14 years, according to the Union Health Ministry.

The nationwide free HPV vaccination campaign for girls aged 14 years was launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi from Rajasthan's Ajmer on February 28.

“Within just a fortnight of its launch, nearly 3 lakh girls aged 14 years have already been vaccinated—marking an encouraging start to this critical public health initiative,” the health ministry said.

"The enthusiastic participation seen so far reflects growing awareness among parents, schools, and communities about the importance of early protection," it added.

Further, the Ministry noted that several states, including Madhya Pradesh, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Gujarat, Odisha, and Mizoram, have seen a significant uptake in the nationwide HPV vaccination campaign.

The initiative marked a decisive step towards eliminating cervical cancer through timely HPV vaccination.

Cervical cancer remains the second most common cancer among women in India. Nearly 80,000 new cases and over 42,000 deaths are reported annually in the country.

The Ministry said that despite examinations currently underway in many regions, the response to the campaign has remained strong, and the momentum is expected to accelerate significantly in the coming days.

“We are leaving no stone unturned to ensure that the daughters of the country are healthy and prosperous. The objective of this initiative is the prevention of cervical cancer," the Prime Minister, earlier wrote in a post on social media platform X.

The government has urged parents and guardians to support and encourage eligible girls to get vaccinated at the earliest.

HPV Vaccine in India

HPV vaccination is voluntary, and parental consent is mandatory before administration of the vaccine.

The single-dose Gardasil-4 vaccine is administered free of cost at government health facilities across all areas, including rural and underserved areas, and will be available even after the campaign ends.

The vaccine used is non-live and does not cause HPV infection. It is supported by more than 500 million doses administered globally since its introduction in 2006.

The vaccine is most effective when it is administered before exposure to HPV and before becoming sexually active. Young women aged 9 to 14 years show vaccine effectiveness of 74 to 93 per cent and this decreases with age.

• Girls aged 9 to 14 should get two doses of the vaccine 6 to 12 months apart
• Women aged 15 to 26 years can get three doses in 0, 2, and 6 months apart
• Adults aged 27 to 45 must get it after consultation with their healthcare provider
