Ok thank you. I've known patients who lived for a month receiving constant fentanyl that month.
Opiates for anasthesia? surprising. What previous "gas"/process did it replace?
It's part of general anesthesia, along with other drugs such as midazolam, propofol, ketamine, etomidate, etc. It augments anesthesia gases such as sevoflurane/desflurane/isoflurane, though we're getting outside my realm of expertise; I'm not an anesthesiologist so I can't specify why a certain combination of drugs might be used vs another.
