*New* Weekly Web Series

Cychlorphine: Still Dominating Opioid Headlines


"It has never been more dangerous to take street level drugs than right now."


USA Today Report - What is Cychlorphine?



AP Report - Weapons-grade chemical carfentanil surges as dangerous substitute for fentanyl



Recent alerts and articles sent to the Tall Cop network are highlighting the emergence of Cychlorphine, a powerful synthetic opioid that is raising serious concern among public health officials, forensic laboratories, and law enforcement. Early toxicology reports describe Cychlorphine as part of the highly potent “orphine” family of synthetic opioids and estimate that it may be up to 10 times stronger than fentanyl. That level of potency means that even extremely small amounts can be deadly.

Several reports from states such as Tennessee and Kentucky have already linked the substance to overdose deaths, and forensic laboratories have begun identifying cychlorphine in toxicology cases across multiple states and Canada. For communities conducting drug trend scans, this is another reminder that the opioid market continues to evolve rapidly.


Key concerns include:

  • Appearing in other drugs: Cychlorphine is reportedly being mixed into other substances, increasing the risk of accidental overdose.
  • Counterfeit pills: The opioid has been found in fake prescription tablets, making it difficult for users to know what they are taking.
  • Mislabeled products: Some individuals believed they were taking prescription medications or other substances but instead ingested tablets containing cychlorphine.
  • Medical emergencies: Several cases required immediate emergency medical treatment due to the drug’s extreme potency.
  • Ongoing trend: This development reinforces a pattern communities are already seeing high-potency synthetic opioids hidden in counterfeit or mislabeled products, making drug trend monitoring and community awareness more important than ever.

 Feedback from Tall Cop Says Stop™ Webinar Attendee:

April 2026
"This was an very informative training today! It is always valuable to participate in such relevant and timely training. As you know, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), through its core mission, is fundamentally aligned with community-focused initiatives that combat drug misuse and enhance public safety. As a DEA professional covering Southern and Appalachian states heavily impacted by the opioid and fentanyl epidemic, I am familiar with the trends that Officer Jermaine Galloway presented today and just wanted to thank your team for the presentation. Excellent work!"

Thanks Tall Cop:

Tall Cop & The Speakers Network

  • “Our counseling team has trained over 750 staff members in Youth Mental Health First Aid. When we talk about substance use disorders, we’re already discussing 7-OH, fentanyl, phenibut, vaping trends, psilocybin, and amanita muscaria, thanks to everything Tall Cop has educated me on.”
    
  • "This is my fifth training with you and even though I had to drive all the way across the state of Oregon, it was well worth it. You are the most informed person to follow regarding all of the crap that people put out for others. Because we can't fight all the evil drug makers and Drug dealers, at least your education helps us with how to fight it. Thank you again!"


  • "Thanks for the eye opening information and your dedication to showing us what’s before us. You are correct. We have no idea and now we can look closer. The dangers before us are not hidden."



  • Tall Cop Speakers Network - "Thank you for spending the last two days with us and making such an impact! God bless you for the work that you are doing. And, I'm sure we will be working together again in Iowa!"
