I think the point was it’s not any more dangerous than heroin and morphine, and can be safe when properly administered in a medical setting.

- thomasfedb 8y agoI can't help but feel that writing "because it is a safe drug" implies that the supposed safeness has something to do with the properties of fentanyl, rather than the manner in which it is used.
- code_duck 8y agoIt’s implied for an drug that safety means specific uses within strict guidelines. Only specific dosages and usages are approved. If using the drug couldn’t go wrong it would be called harmless. Like every commercial says, ‘Use as directed’.
- Novashi 8y agoI have no idea why we're talking about it in a medical setting when this is clearly meant to show how dangerous it is in the hands of the public. Fentanyl is dangerous on the streets and safer in the hospital sheets, of course, but that basically has no bearing on how it's used by addicts and cartels.
