A HOLISTIC REVIEW OF FENTANYL USE AND ITS IMPACT ON PUBLIC HEALTH
Öz
Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid that was engineered to provide a
potent analgesic effect, with its medical utility widely established
in clinical contexts such as pain management and anesthesia.
Fentanyl use has become a critical public health issue due to
diversion for misuse and to rapidly proliferation of illicit manufacturing.
This persistent increase in illicitly manufactured fentanyl
distribution shows no indication of decline, raising significant
concerns regarding its impact on public health and opioid
misuse trends, including a dramatic increase in overdose deaths.
Moreover, individuals from socially or economically precarious
backgrounds, as well as those suffering from mental health disorders,
are particularly vulnerable, as limited access to resources
and support systems can lead to increased substance use as a
coping mechanism for stress and adversity. Therefore, the objective
of this narrative review is to provide a holistic overview
on fentanyl, addressing its synthesis process, pharmacology and
clinical use, relationship with gut microbiome, epidemiology
and global distribution, patterns of use and motivations, and
overdose treatment. For this purpose, current and relevant evidence
on fentanyl and its correlates has been conscientiously assessed
and outlined.
