    • the mechanism responsible for this syndrome lies centrally, downstream of the pattern-generating circuitry for respiratory motor output, but upstream of the effector musculature, and may involve molecular targets other than the μ-opioid receptor. High doses of fentanyl can cause this lethal phenotype, resulting from tonic contractions of respiratory-associated musculature, precluding the ability to mechanically inflate the lungs
