    How the hell do you dose fentanyl safely outside of a clinical context? You cannot discern a lethal dose from a nonlethal dose with the naked eye.

      Legalized doesn’t mean unregulated, people went blind during prohibition due to dangerous moonshine but it’s incredibly rare now as it’s brought from licensed manufacturers.

        It’s a property of fentanyl itself. I’m saying that outside of a clinical context, you don’t have the instrumentation necessary to dose it.

          I’m suggesting reputable businesses could sell dosed mixtures just like they do in a clinical setting. A pill or solution with the appropriate amount.

        Tbh it’s even rare with moonshine now. Idk if it’s just the internet making knowledge more widely accessible but now people know to throw out the methanol (or “foreshots”) for blinding reasons, and if you want it to be good throw the heads and tails too.

      You’re ignoring the part where they said that no one would be taking fentanyl because other opiates would be available. It was literally the first sentence.

      People don’t typically take it recreationally on purpose; it’s usually because a low level dealer cut the drug and added fentanyl to it.

      With regulated doses, probably in pill form, like any other fucking drug? Obviously they wouldn’t be selling pure fentanyl powder
