8. Fentanyl Patches
This tiny little square patch is another prescription drug that is normally used for pain management when used properly (i.e. placed somewhere on the body preferably the arm), as it is supposed to release small doses over a course of time. Unfortunately, people have found a way to misuse this drug as well; they chew it, swallow it whole, inject it and get it into their system in any way that it will allow to alter their state. Like every other drug, people believe it is all fun and games but realistically when abused this drug can cause death, respiratory issues and brain damage among other things (because death is not scary enough). Did anyone else see that episode of Intervention of the girl who was addicted to fentanyl? Enough said.
