Abstract: Carfentanil, a tranquiliser for large animals, surfaced recently as a street drug in North America. The synthetic opioid can also be weaponised for use against civilians. Authorities worldwide need to intensify screening for the highly dangerous drug at customs and border checkpoints. But is it opioid or would-be chemical weapon?
