Decades ago, IIRC, Fentanyl was in use for pain management. Friend of mine with cancer in various places was on it.
Yes, it does have a legitimate use, when prescribed properly and in absolute measured dosages.
But the Mexican drug smugglers and Chinese mfrs don’t exactly follow FDA guidelines...............
I remember some recent threads about this topic when some congressmen and senators were pushing this. Some freepers even agreed and then others pointed out that it was used both in hospitals and as a prescription drug especially for cancer patients. The problem isn’t CVS selling it but Juan selling it and other drugs polluted with it out of his trunk.
I had some major surgery, in a very well known top notch hospital.
When I looked through the bills, I have noticed, that I was given Fentanyl several times during, and after, the surgery. It controlled my pain in great way, and I never got hooked on it, or had any other problems with it.
Obviously, they knew what they were doing!
Unlike the street thugs and president Biden!
It still is and also in surgical environments.
“..Decades ago, IIRC, Fentanyl was in use for pain management. Friend of mine with cancer in various places was on it....”
It’s still in use.
I have a sister suffering from cancer that’s on a fentanyl patch for pain management right now as we speak. I’m no pharmacist, but my understanding is that the type used for medical purposes differs quite a bit from the street drug variety.
For this diaper-wrapped, demented moron to suggest killing the medical use is appalling. Maybe karma will have him needing it someday and not be able to get it.
What goes around, comes around. May a curse and a pox rest upon him.
