Is It Possible to Purchase Carfentanil Over the Counter?
Question by Andrew: Is it possible to purchase Carfentanil over the counter?
Best answer:
Answer by Hr?odb?orð
I sincerely hope not. Carfentanil, a generic for Wildil, is an outrageously strong opioid intended for use in tranquilizing animals and is in no way safe for human consumption, although after reading up on it I understand the attraction. As an opioid, carfentatnil is akin to codeine and heroin — only much stronger than either, and synthetic. Consider this quote from a ranking chemist of the Drug Enforcement Administration:
“For instance, carfentanil is approximately 4000 times as potent as heroin and has an extremely favorable therapeutic index […]. Hence, an easy week’s work for two chemists could provide 1 (one) kilogram of carfentanil which would be equivalent to four metric tons of pure heroin.”
–Donald A. Cooper, DEA Senior Forensic Chemist, in “Future Synthetic Drugs of Abuse”
