Transdermal patch how is the medication released?
Duragesic and other Fentanyl patches release Fentanyl dosages transdermally (through the skin and into the bloodstream).

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.
