the fentanyl market faced a supply shock—a sudden change in how much of something is available and/or a significant change in its quality—starting mid-to-late 2023. The shock alters the market price, and as a result. drugs become less potent and/or harder to find.
The findings also suggest that international chemical precursor regulation and drug production controls played a decisive role in saving tens of thousands of lives. Beginning in mid-2023, provisional mortality data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) showed a major decline in opioid overdose deaths in the U.S. By late 2024, annual overdose deaths involving synthetic opioids had fallen nearly a third.
Remarkable
