Unlabelled: To specify pharmacological interferences between droperidol and fentanyl an experimental study was carried out on mice. The analgesic kinetic was studied after the administration of the two drugs in a concentration ratio between 25/1 and 150/1.

Results: Fentanyl is a potent analgesic with a short time effect. It has very good correlations between dose effect and time effect. Droperidol does not have a analgesic effect. The behaviour of the two drugs depends on the way they are administered, either simultaneously or consecutively: simultaneous administration of the two drugs increases the level and duration of analgesia: nalaxone reverses analgesia, a fentanyl injection given 5 minutes before a droperidol injection produces the same analgesia as fentanyl alone, a droperidol injection given 5 minutes before a fentanyl injection induces a level of analgesia lower than fentanyl alone. Droperidol appears to reverse the fentanyl analgesia.

Free fentanyl is responsible for its pharmacological effects, but its total concentration is typically determined for therapeutic drug monitoring purposes. Determination of fentanyl concentration can help reduce the prescribed doses, leading to fewer side effects and increased effectiveness. Therefore, predicting free drug concentration in pharmaceutical research is crucial.

From 2014 to 2017, the drug overdose death rate per 100,000 in New York City (NYC) increased by 81%, with 57% of overdoses in 2017 involving the opioid fentanyl. In response, overdose education and naloxone dispensing (OEND) efforts were expanded in NYC, informed by neighborhood-level and population-level opioid overdose fatality rates. We describe the demographic and geographical distribution of naloxone by NYC opioid overdose prevention programs (OOPPs; the primary distributor of naloxone to laypersons in NYC) as OEND was expanded in NYC.
