W A R N I N G:
DO NOT CUT A PATCH IN HALF - A FATAL DOSE OF FENTANYL CAN BE RELEASED.
Do not used damaged packages either. Wash your hands after application. Follow the instructions very carefully.
This is a very safe and effective drug when used properly and one of the strongest pain relievers on the market.
