Can you tell the difference between a piece of candy and an opioid? Being able to distinguish between the two can be challenging, especially since some opioids are purposely designed to look like candy. Here are some tips to help you keep you and your children safe this Halloween: • Opioids have a more uniform appearance than candy, which varies in color and shape. • Prescription opioids have specific imprints, numbers, or letters. • Opioids are usually packed in unbranded plastic bags or have no packaging at all. • Opioids can leave a powdery residue, which is uncommon for candy. • Opioids do not have a strong smell, but some might have a chemical or medicinal odor. Candy usually has a sweet or fruity smell. If you suspect a substance might be an opioid, avoid direct contact and seek help from a health care professional or local authority.

Treating patients for addiction is not for the faint of heart. But it’s imperative, particularly in rural regions of the country where the opioid epidemic kills thousands of people every year. That’s why St. Luke’s University Health Network created two fellowship programs: addiction medicine and addiction psychiatry, which are designed to certify physicians and psychiatrists in these growing fields.
