Great, now i have to go to the street dealers to get my fentanyl fix. Too much government overreach.

Congress actually got something functional done? I’m shocked.

Pointless. No matter what or how you designate the drug, it’s still coming in through the southern border. Seal the border and the issue goes away.

How about illegals as a Schedule 1.

Does nothing but scare doctors and keep meds from those in chronic pain. Addicts cause pain and suffering far beyond their own filthy circle of dope fiends—the unintended consequences of their selfish behavior.

National Cancer Institute, NCI Dictionary of Cancer Terms: fentanyl citrate: "A drug used to treat severe cancer pain that occurs even though the patient is already taking opioids."

Another law should fix things.

The Law of Unintended Consequences:

Now actual human beings in real pain will just have to suffer through it. Bite a stick, patients.

Why not just declare the US a Fentanyl-free zone? It works for drugs near schools and guns, right? This will just make people who legitimately need fentanyl for pain control suffer more. Stupid and pointless.

Ridiculous! What about chronic pain patients? It won’t do a dimes worth of good to make it schedule 1. Almost all the illicit drugs out there are schedule 1’s; does that get rid of them? Of course not!

One drug mule can smuggle enough of the illegal drug to kill half the country.
The problem isn’t the legal medically prescribed drug.

Schedule 1, has no medical benefits? My patients have been benefiting from fentanyl for forty years.

Why not enact some legislation that will actually address the cause of the fentanyl crisis? China and Mexico are sending this poison across our border and making this a schedule 1 drug does nothing to change that.

Absolutely STUPID !!!

This will drive some people to go to the STREETS for effective pain relief!!!

Scheduling Fentanyl as Schedule 1 will do NOTHING to stop the flow of ILLEGAL fentanyl on the streets! THE PROBLEM IS THE POROUS BORDER, NOT LEGALLY PRESCRIBED FENTANYL THAT HAS BEEN DIVERTED!!!
