I can only reiterate the potential danger of some types of these "patches". We have a standing order at the Medical Examiner's Office which requires us to seize any patches when we attend any death of a person using duragesic patches. The toxicology lab checks to see if there were any defects in the patches or if the levels in the subjects blood are excessive. This warning has been in existence for some time so I am surprised it is only now being placed in the public domain.
