The Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) issued a health alert June 1 warning parents and students about the dangers of fentanyl-laced drugs after three LAUSD students overdosed last week.
The three teenage girls were hospitalized May 25 after consuming a drug laced with fentanyl—a synthetic opioid about 100 times stronger than morphine. Officials said the students thought they were buying ecstasy online.
