"Fentanyl is a synthetic primary μ agonist opioid, currently the most widely used synthetic opioid analgesic worldwide, with a primary potency approximately 81 times that of morphine.[1] Fentanyl has an LD50 of 3.1 milligrams per kilogram in rats, 0.03 milligrams per kilogram in monkeys, and an as of yet undetermined LD50 in humans; however, analgesic doses start at 10μg/IV in an opioid-naive individual. Dozens of fentanyl analogs have been developed, the first being Janssen Pharmaceutica's Sufentanil which entered clinical practice as a general anaesthetic under the trade name Sublimaze in the early 1960's. Additionally, Fentanyl is classified as a Schedule II drug in the United States due to its potential for abuse, comparable to other cross-tolerant opioids such as morphine."
