User Reviews for Fentanyl to treat Anesthetic Adjunct
Also known as: Duragesic, Fentanyl Transdermal System, Actiq, Fentora, Lazanda Subsys
“I had to have some eggs taken from my ovaries for storage because I’m newly single and 39. Before the procedure, the nurse gave me a light sedative and fentanyl. The sedative made it hard for me to keep my eyes open but the fentanyl didn’t work. They gave me a second shot halfway as I was yelling in pain. I felt everything but the sedative made me less responsive. I don’t know if it’s the case for a lot of people but for me it did nothing.”

“I went to the hospital to get a colonoscopy done, I was in a lot of pain the they gave me 75mcg of fentanyl as a pain relief they said I would feel my heart rate increase but I felt nothing it didn't even help with the pain so my procedure was stopped. They said that I couldn't drive for 24 hours but I don't feel anything I just the same as I did before I had the medication so god knows what it's meant to do because it had no effect on me at all”
