How long does can i take the fentanyl patch?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
As long as doc says: Fentanyl is a narcotic used to fight pain. The patch form is typically used for those w/chronic pain. Therefore, one should only take it as long as your physician recommends that you do so. Be careful of addiction as well as constipation.
