Is Fentanyl and morphine safe together?

Answer 1

You can, but you won't feel much because fentanyl is a lot stronger. The only reason you'd take it is for breakthrough pain, but realistically, it's not that strong; if the pain is breaking through what the fentanyl can't keep up with, you need Percocet or just straight Oxycodone.

Answer 2

If we're speaking medically than of course you should consult your doctor.

They are both potent opioids so there is increased danger of overdose. Fentanyl in particular is extremely potent and should be handled with extreme care.

But as far as any dangerous chemical reaction between the two specifically, no. They are just two opioids, nothing else fancy going on.

Answer 3

As long as your tolerance level is high enough, yes. As a long term Duragesic user, I've required MS Contin to help augment my patches and other breakthrough meds when the pain was extremely severe. MS Contin is just one variation of morphine in pill form, though morphine is less potent than Fentanyl is. The key is your overall opiate tolerance level - if you're like me and have been using high doses for years, it's not a problem. If you're relatively new to opiates, then you should start with smaller doses to see how it affects you, but your doctor will already know that assuming he/she is competent.

Word of advice - NEVER assume your doctor is competent until proven. I've nearly paid for that mistake with my life, and it's cost 10 years of my life in unnecessary pain as well.
