"If addicts crave the effects of the drug and won’t be satisfied otherwise, then tolerance is a problem for them and they will require ever higher doses to stop the cravings."
This is exactly what I'm afraid of. Especially when it is very easy to overdose on fentanyl.
- gwbas1c 3y agoOne very important reason to legalize access to opioids is for quality control. The main reason why overdoses occur is because street drug potency is unknown, and because street drug potency can be inconsistent within the same batch. (IE, if my black market "heroin" is really powdered fentanyl mixed in a gel, if I don't mix it well the fentanyl will clump, and the clumps could kill someone.)
