    Fentanyl is a synthetic narcotic prescribed for pain that is more potent than morphine. It works on the brain by binding to opioid receptors and releasing chemicals that produce euphoria and pain relief. Effects include slowed breathing, heart attack, swelling, dehydration, and agitation. Long term use can lead to addiction, overdose, and death.
