Today, the subcommittee examines the next wave of the Opioid Crisis and fentanyl. Fentanyl is made in the lab and for many years, it has been a powerful pain medication used by patients with cancer or for those with extreme pain. When i was injured in iraq a few years ago, Battlefield Medicine they, and recovery, gave me lots of fentanyl patches. It is 50 times more potent than heroine and 100 times more potent than morphine. Now, fentanyl has been a powerful additive. This is the way the drug dealers increase profits and expand the number of addicts, by juicing the potency of heroine or other street drugs, like people have done with msg in foods. Users often do not know that fentanyl is in the heroine. T
