Fentanyl patches are pretty dangerous. The package insert explicitly warns you not to get the patch on your fingers or hands because the substance gets absorbed into the body more quickly than intended. It also warns against cutting a patch in half (or using otherwise damaged patches) because that too increases the rate at which the patch releases the medicine.
