Fentanyl FAQ

What is fentanyl?

Fentanyl is a narcotic analgesic that produces pain relief by suppressing the transmission of pain in the central nervous system. It is used for cancer patients or chronic pain patients who require the administration of a narcotic analgesic, and the injectable form is used for short-term pain relief before and after surgery and as an adjunct to anesthesia. Because there is a risk of drug abuse, it must be used under the guidance of a medical professional.

Penalties for Fentanyl

Fentanyl is a synthetic narcotic derived from opium, and a person who inhales fentanyl may, under the Narcotics Control Act, be punished by imprisonment for not more than 10 years or a fine not exceeding 100 million won, and possession may carry imprisonment for a definite term of not less than one year.
