I’m not familiar with euthanasia in humans. In animals, phenobarbital is used, not morphine. In humans, Morphine is used when withdrawing a ventilator. It’s not used to kill the patient. Morphine is very effective at quelling what we call “air hunger”, which is incredibly uncomfortable for the patient (if they can still feel it), and the family (because it sounds like the patient is gasping for air.)
