They look like prescription painkillers, but they can be deadly.
Agents with the Florida Department of Law Enforcement are warning residents about a drug known as "super pill," which contains deadly levels of fentanyl and is now being found in Central Florida.
FDLE's Orlando crime laboratory recently started seeing counterfeit drugs, not legally prescribed, containing dangerous amounts of fentanyl or fentanyl mixed with other drugs such as Percocet, Xanax or Oxycodone.
Although the drugs look identical to regular prescription painkillers, they contain fentanyl.
"It is important for consumers who need prescription painkillers to get them from licensed pharmacies," said Danny Banks, FDLE Orlando Special Agent in Charge. "Consumers have no idea what they are buying when they purchase prescription drugs on the street, and just one pill can be deadly."
The pill has been found in other parts of the United States, but it has only recently been found in Central Florida, authorities said.
