I have 50mcg fentanyl patches. i never done fentanyl before and i heard they were dangerous. i have a strong opiate back ground, but i do not want to risk iving them? i heard they were 100 times stronger than morphine, so im not sure of my dosage if i can easily do 160 mgs of oxy a day.any suggestions?
 
The fent is spread evenly throughout the adhesive unless they are the gel reservoir variety. If the are not the gel, you can cut it into quarters and put on a quarter. Give it some time and try another quarter patch added if the first wasn't enough. You can do a search for an opiate conversion chart to try to figure out what dosage is good. The whole patch is going to deliver 50 micrograms per hour for 72 hours.

Be careful. Fent can be some powerful stuff.
 
I've heard of people smoking them but have no idea how it's done.
I've also heard stories about people OD'ing because the fent isn't spread evenly across the patch since when used properly this isn't an issue since the whole patch is used at once.

True. The patches can have "hot spots." Start SMALL, whatever you decide to do with fentanyl.
 
The best thing to do would be to avoid fentanyl. There's zero room for error with fentanyl, you are literally gambling with your life. With that being said, just wear the patch as intended and have a friend close by for a good 24 hours to make sure you are alright.

let's use this example, replacing fentanyl with driving drunk: i just bought a shiny new car and i found a bottle of everclear (high proof alcohol, i think it is 98% ABV) in the trunk. i want to drink the everclear and drive an hour back to house. i post on a message board asking "what is the safest way to drink alcohol while driving my car?"

there is no safe, HR answer to my question other than telling me to not drink everclear and drive. the thread should be closed with a message saying something like "drive home. THEN mix a little everclear with something non-alcoholic. there is absolutely no safe way to drink everclear and drive".

the thread could be left open with people offering opinions of dubious quality. say i decide that by taking a cold shower, downing a cup of coffee and sucking on some pennies, i can safely drink everclear and drive home because people mentioned as much in my thread. sure, i was given advice on how to drive drunk but no one should suggest that advice benefited me or provided any sort of HR value.
 
Using latex gloves, carefully dispose of the patches. Put them in the garbage where they belong, better them get buried 6 feet deep than you. Fentanyl is for people who know what they're doing, and don't care that they could and likely will one day overdose stop breathing and die because there is NO way that you can measure out a dose from a non-homogenous gelatinous blob.

Fentakill CANNOT be abused safely. It doesn't matter if you have a strong opiate background. Without having a way of measuring a dose in micrograms, you are playing russian roulette every time, but there are four bullets in the barrel instead of just one.

Fentanyl is not even considered to be very recreational to most opioid addicts, as it is far too strong, lacks euphoria, and the respiratory depression is so strong that it just is an overall very uncomfortable experience IMO. not to mention that it raises your tolerance beyond belief so that you will not be able to feel your 160mg oxycodone dose anymore, and the withdrawals are more severe than pretty much any other opioid with the possible exception of withdrawal from long-term oxymorphone use.

These patches are for SEVERE chronic pain. Abusing fentanyl patches is reckless, impossible to do safely, and is not something that I condone anyone's abuse of it, no matter how hard they try to justify or rationalize it. I am begging you to reconsider whether you would risk your life just because you are in possession of fentanyl patches. Destroy them and make sure that there is no chance that a kid ever finds it.

I recommend taking them outside in a safe place avoiding any skin contact whatsoever, and then holding the patches with a pair of tweezers then apply direct flame via propane torch until there's nothing left. Or put them in a metal trash can and pour in a generous amount of lighter fluid and then from a safe distance, ignite it and incinerate them.

There's no way you could measure out the 100mcg dose that they would start you on in the hospital while under supervision of an anesthesiologist ready to intubate you for mechanical breathing in the event that your vitals crash. PLEASE don't abuse fentanyl patches just because you have them, that's the dumbest excuse I've ever heard.
 
Fent is indeed some kill shit, but that being said its cold, as in it lacks that warmth heroin and morphine and even oxy will give. I remember taking oxy for the first time and popping a boner bc it felt so good and warm lmao. Ive smoked a lot of the gel patches and its no doubt recreational, the polymer matrix kind not so much, they totally suck. The only way to use them is to wear them, and even then, its only if you are very knowlegable and have a super high tolerance....yea 160mgs of oc is a lot, but for fent its like hundreds of mgs of oxy. If you want to, id say dry shave your chest, put the patch on and take a hair dryer and apply heat to it for a few minutes. That will jump start the process. READ tho, do that at your own risk!!!! Its dangerous stuff and isnt like stuffing oxy up your nose.
 
I don't know very much about Fentanyl, except that it is supposed to be 100x stronger than Morphine. And if that is true, That is just asking for death. About 8 years ago, me and my best friend Sean would hang out every day. He was the goofiest dude I had ever met. He was hilarious, nice, always came up with fun shit to do when we were bored, and he LOVED to get fucked up. Now I am waiting for the inevitable sarcastic comment(s). Anyway, one night we went to pick up 50 bars to split between us. Then we went back to his place to chill and smoke a couple bowls. He said he was just gonna take a couple bars and go to bed. So I just went home and went to sleep. The next day I was supposed to come over to his place after he got off work. I arrived at around 4:00. There were police cars, Ambulances, and cops and EMTs running like crazy. Obviously at this point i knew that he had at least Overdosed. I just prayed he hadn't died. I got in and another one of my friends was over there and he was crying like a baby. Apparently Evan came over that night to chill with him. Evan fell asleep early. When he woke up, Shean was sleeping with his legs off the edge of the bed. He obviously blacked out and passed out. Evan didn't think much of it, because Sean was the Grandmaster of getting fucked up 24/7. He was always passed out in some random position. And his parents didn't give a fuck what he did. They also never went down to check on him throughout the day. So here is what happened. Evan came back after getting off work. He arrived at about 3:45. He went downstairs and went in to see Sean. He was in the exact same position, completely blue, and had weird acne looking bumps all over his body. The EMTs said that he had been dead for a while. I can't remember exactly how long he had been dead for. But the moral of the story here is: Be INCREDIBLY CAUTIOUS when using Fentanyl. People kill themselves by accident on these things all the time. Their are three rules that are needed to be followed before you can play the Fentanyl game. The first rule is having someone with you that is completely sober, who can watch over the person taking the Fentanyl. The second rule is that you should NEVER MIX ANY OTHER DRUGS ON THIS PLANET, or, better yet, THE ENTIRE FUCKING SOLAR SYSTEM. The third rule is that you you want to try a different ROA, have someone with you that knows how to do it, so they can show you. And have that person stay the night with you. And if he can't stay over, find someone that is sober to come watch over you. Fentanyl isn't worth you in your early grave. That stuff scares the shit out of me, I will never try it. But damn I fucking love opiates.
 
thanks for the replies everyone but i thought i would just let you know my 2 cents. there is like NO euphoria, it sneaks up on you so yes be careful, to use these for *recreational* purposes isnt fun , but i needed these because i had nothing else atm. i took 30 mg valium, smoked some weed with half a patch of 50mgs and after 2 hours i really felt like i had to take it off or i would od. i was weirdly nodding off..but in a different way. i didnt really like the feeling it gave me.i always had someone sober watching me just in case. just anyways so ya i wouldnt ever recommend using these but around where i live people are really asking for them and i dont know whats so great about them, i guess everyone is different.
 
After all that being said...and you did them along with 30mg of Valium??

For any future readers of this thread who wonders...that is a very bad idea. At least the OP only wore the patch but even when removed some drug can still continue to be absorbed for a period of time.

I really don't know what to say about this...
Why not throw in a few beers?

Damn, why even create this thread and then ignore all the advice?
 
If you have the matrix patches and have a limited tolerance id prob sell them to someone who wants them..there are ppl that do, ppl with chronic pain that cant get them for whatever reason, ppl with high tolerance ect. The gel patches at least you can smoke tiny little blobs if you have the tolerance to do so. Wearing them can be reall dangerous bc once you actually feel the effect and decide its too strong then say take the patch off, you are going to have hours worth of the drug still puring through your skin.
 
My good old gramps has been on 10-20mgs hydrocodone for years and one day out of the blue his nurse decided he'd do better on fentanyl. Well, I'm not sure where she got her nursing lisence, maybe from the University of Bullshit, because 10-20mgs hydro is not a very big tolerance, and from the time she put the patch on him he was out cold for 6 days. 6 DAYS!!! My grandma took it off after 24 hours because he was unresponsive and then he straight up slept through the next 5 days. She even took him to the hospital because he was barely breathing. I personally have never had a chance to try fent, but if I did I think I'd probably pass it up. I've heard way more fentanyl OD and die stories than maybe all the other opiates combined.
 
Could well be the nurse acting on a doctor's [highly dodgy] instructions.

The first fentanyl patch I ever used was applied by an R.N., because at the time I was taking morphine ER and the hospital was out of the brand/dosage. I didn't ask who gave the order, which I should have; however, I was sick as well as tired of asking what dosage of everything coming my way...

That said, deidara's grandpa dodged a bullet, fortunately.
 
I just wanted to say that I am extremely proud of yall for posting how dangerous fentanyl truly is instead of advocating use of it.

Me too, it's a fucking shame that we have to post about our dead loved ones to try and often fail to convince drug users who believe that they've been using opioids so long that they are invincible, it's a phenomenon I see every single day with long-term opioid addicts and it's fucking lethal.

Fentanyl and any compounds like it should NEVER be used recreationally and should NEVER be used against the direct orders of your prescribing physician. Those people who are competent enough to use fentanyl safely wouldn't need to make thread's here asking how to do so, and because there is no safe way to abuse fentanyl patches when you have no idea what your dose is, there is really no safe way to accomplish what you're asking for.

Some users lately have been complaining that fentanyl threads are "banned" or a taboo subject. I don't understand why anyone would be defending the reckless abuse of fentanyl (and don't bother defending that any way of tampering with fentanyl patches in order to get a dose measured accurately in micrograms from a non-homogenous fentanyl transdermal delivery system is or can be done in a safe way)

To those of you complaining about OD "banning" fentanyl discussion, you should understand that there is no ban in place, as CLEARLY made evident by this thread, but that we are trying to save lives and not give users and readers false confidence that they can achieve the impossible. So, fentanyl-abuse-defenders, how are you going to prove the rest of us wrong, those of us who have lost people we loved and who's memories still live on today in our hearts and still remember their funerals. How do you safely abuse fentanyl via patches?

Also, the ban on recommending the IV ROA if the OP is not dead-set on using it also applies here to this case, where the OP is not dead-set on doing something that I can only see ending up with fatalities, recommending the abuse of fentanyl patches without providing ANY harm reduction information on how to SAFELY do so, constitutes a violation of the values on which this rule was created. That being said, I'll summarize and set precedent: If you recommend to anyone that it's okay to abuse fentanyl, you better be damned sure you include how to safely do so, since that's what this forum is about. We aren't here to help people abuse drugs. We're here to help people reduce the harm to themselves and society at large if they are determined to do so, and in this case, I do not see how this is possible, hence why some people think there is a BAN on fentanyl discussion. The BAN is on recommending how to abuse drugs without clear and explicit warning and advice on how to proceed safely; in this case it's fentanyl patches where I have yet to come across a single post that explains how to safely tamper with the patches.... SO DON'T TAMPER WITH FENTANYL PATCHES.
