What is Fentanyl (Duragesic) 12.5 mcg/hr?

Fentanyl is a potent opioid analgesic used to treat severe pain that cannot be managed with other medications. The Duragesic 12.5 mcg/hr patch provides a steady, controlled release of fentanyl through the skin over a 72-hour period, making it an ideal choice for managing chronic pain conditions.

How Does Fentanyl 12.5 mcg/hr Work?

• Opioid Analgesic: Fentanyl works by binding to opioid receptors in the brain and spinal cord, altering the way your body perceives pain. It is significantly stronger than morphine and provides effective relief for severe pain.
• Extended Release: The Duragesic patch is designed to release fentanyl slowly and consistently over 72 hours. This extended-release mechanism ensures stable pain control and minimizes the need for frequent dosing.

Why Choose Fentanyl 12.5 mcg/hr Patches?

• Convenient and Discreet: The patch is easy to apply and remove, providing a discreet and convenient way to manage pain. Once applied, it delivers continuous pain relief without the need for oral medications or frequent dosing.
• Long-Lasting Relief: With a 72-hour release cycle, Fentanyl patches provide long-lasting pain management, helping you maintain a more consistent level of comfort.
