All that you say is relevant to the 'Fentanyl analogs' or street versions. Undoubtedly deadly.

But I have an issue with the demonization of Fentanyl. It is an incredibly important medication for pain killing post injury/surgery and terminal illness. Its power is 50–100 times more potent than morphine.

If you are in intractable pain you will want it.

Everybody make sure your minds aren't being manipulated into banning the truly few human pain killers in the long run.

Fentanyl is now a dirty word. Fentanyl analogs should have a different name. I remain discerning.

Andrew Graham: Yes. I was given Fentanyl in the hospital (twice) for my broken (smashed) hip in the ER. It wasn't enough painkiller. Fentanyl is also used in hospices.
