Fentanyl Death from Eating the Gel?

Duragesic and other Fentanyl patches contain Fentanyl suspended in a gel solution, which is delivered transdermally over a 2-3 day period to the patient. Since it's a timed-release drug, cutting the patch and eating the gel bypasses the timed-release function and instantly gives the person a massive dose of Fentanyl, which even for highly opiate tolerant patients like myself, can be extremely dangerous or fatal. For most who are on high doses, the effects are usually confusion or delirium; for those who aren't opiate tolerant or use drugs like Cocaine or Heroin, the effects are usually fatal, since Fentanyl is 100 times stronger than Morphine. Fentanyl users have the drug in their systems 24/7, and as such, build up a very high tolerance to its effects. Patient who start using it have already used other opiates for some time, and already have a high tolerance before using it. Those who aren't regular users and aren't tolerant to the effects usually die of respiratory or cardiac arrest, or a combination of both. The most common cause of death though is ignorance and a lack of respect for how powerful an opiate Fentanyl is.

If you eat Fentanyl will it show the same as having a Fentanyl patch on?

Yes, it will still show up the same (if you live to take a test) but your body will have massive amounts of the Fentanyl in your system instead of a certain microgram per hour as the Fentanyl Transdermal System is made for. You shouldn't be eating these whatsoever. You can die from this. People whom are tolerant to these but using them transdermally still could die from eating a patch. Be careful and very smart of how you use a drug. Know ALL risks and side effects.


Can you take Tylenol 3 and Fentanyl together?

Yes - Tylenol 3 doesn't have a fraction of the painkilling ability that Fentanyl does, but it does work better on some areas of the brain that Fentanyl and similar opiates don't (e.g., migraines). Like any combination though, even though you're opiate tolerant just using Fentanyl, you need to be aware of any increased side effects, especially respiratory depression.
