I think when the Fentanyl Patch came out it was intented for pain assoicated with cancer and the likes. Unfortunately doctors have percribed it incorrectly or for patients that will eventually have to get rid of the patch and that is when the problem comes in. I have known people to have a terrible time coming off this stuff, don't ever just take it off without a doctor knowing and being under his care. From what I have seen it's very hard.
I agree with you I don't know why they percribe so freely when it's so dangerous. These days I really watch what I take. Some of the medications have such weird side effects and some that can be harmful.
Thanks for the warning.
