> Stahl states (2012 CNS Spect 17.1) that fentanyl is strictly prohibited. Gillman (2005 Brit J Anaesthesia 95.4) concludes that it has "possibly" caused fatalities from serotonin toxicity.
The Stahl article is probably more recent than the literature I used to suggest the safety of fentanyl. I agree with your concerns and would not recommend using it.
I didn't realize that fentanyl is a weak inhibitor of serotonin reuptake.
