My understanding is that fentanyl lolipops are given to children who are victims of cancer in this country. Evidently when used properly they are useful and "safe". If you're dying of painful cancer, fentanyl might be a good choice.

The other option is large doses of demerol.

Fentanyl is a widely used pain killer. It is also one of the most used drugs for abuse among physicians and anesthesiologists as it is hard to pick up on drug screens. Impaired physicians are more numerous than you think.

The deaths in the Russian hostage situation were from high levels of Fentanyl mist pumped in the rooms and the poor condition of most of the people there after several days of no food or water, plus inadequate post rescue medical care.
