Synthetic Substances Image
Acetyl fentanyl is a potent synthetic opioid with analgesic properties. It acts as a downer, leading to sedation, severe respiratory depression, and constricted pupils. Short-term use provides pain relief, but long-term use increases addiction risks, tolerance, and significant health issues. Overdose can result in fatal respiratory depression. Safe use demands strict dosing and medical oversight. Recent research emphasizes its potency and overdose risks compared to other opioids.
