- A 60-year-old with a history of emphysema may have compromised respiratory function, and fentanyl can depress respiration further, making it a risky choice.- A 17-year-old who sustained a head injury may have increased intracranial pressure, and opioids like fentanyl can lead to further increases in this pressure, making the situation worse.- A breast-feeding mother should avoid fentanyl as it can be passed to the infant through breast milk, potentially causing respiratory depression in the newborn.
