"I was given 100 micrograms every hour, plus 50 micrograms every 30 minutes as a push button in a drip for cancer pain, and it worked great. After the morphine dose was above 20 mg every 4 hours, I was given the drip. It worked great for pain and had very little side effects, only constipation, but that was because I was on it for 30 days. I would strongly suggest for any type of severe pain and/or cancer pain if morphine or Dilaudid isn't working or isn't tolerable."

"I was taken to the ER with kidney stones and pyelonephritis. The pain was very severe, but the fentanyl injection took my pain from a 9/10 to a 2/3 within about two minutes or less. It wore off within an hour, and that is my only complaint. The Toradol helped me for longer."

"I have had to take Sublimaze for pain when the Dilaudid just doesn't help. It works. 1 cc intramuscularly worked very well."

"Fentanyl saved my life pre-back surgery. The sublingual fentanyl literally is the best pain reliever (severe pain relief only! Not for mild to moderate pain) more than Kadian, Norco, Oxy. I was in so much pain; Fentanyl got me through it. Back surgery was a success, and life is moving on; almost pain free."
