"Age-adjusted death rates were calculated by applying age-specific death rates to the 2000 U.S. standard population age distribution.
Deaths from illegally-made fentanyl cannot be distinguished from pharmaceutical fentanyl in the data source. For this reason, deaths from both legally prescribed and illegally produced fentanyl are included in these data."
