Previously you stated you saved thousands of lives by preventing this drug having this blue dye to be approved.

This sound's like you are quite sure about it and you have some proof.

Well - I understand this completely. You think you have saved lives.

You asked me to quantify the number of lives that were saved, which is impossible to calculate without any safety study being done. I can be exceptionally confident that **many** lives were saved by not poisoning them with a known toxic substance, but until the company provides the necessary data by performing the necessary safety study, it will be impossible to say exactly how many.

If blue dye in oxycodone tablets shift abuse use to fentanyl, my opinion is there should be blue dye in fentanyl products too.

Do you possibly think it's dangerous to put blue dye in fentanyl plasters?

Since I read the news, I understand that the fentanyl that is causing so many overdose deaths is not from any FDA approved products, such as the fentanyl patch. Since I read the news, I understand the problem with fentanyl is that it is **synthetic** and can be manufactured in a lab (or garage or shed or kitchen), unlike heroin, which is an agricultural product processed from poppy grown on the other side of the planet. Since I read the news, I understand that fentanyl is 1000x stronger than heroin, which is why so many users die when they think they're injecting heroin but they're getting illicitly manufactured fentanyl instead. Since I read the news, I know these things. Everyone is welcome to read the news, please try it.
