Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Fentanyl is a highly potent synthetic opioid that is estimated to be 50-100 times stronger than morphine. Its potency makes it highly effective for pain management in medical settings, but also highly dangerous when used illegally or improperly. Fentanyl is currently the drug responsible for a significant portion of opioid overdose deaths, as it is often mixed with other drugs and sold on the black market without proper regulation or dosage control.
