ANYONE who's familiar with the super-potent NON-HUMAN synthetic opioids, even someone who just has minor experience with tranquilizing/etc rhinos/elephants/etc, please re-word/update anything I may've missed or wrote confusingly. I just wanted to get the "revivon for humans" out of the section before someone finds it at the zoo they're working at, grabs a vial and thinks they have a "safety shot", as it's NOT for humans - it DOES have mu-opioid-AGONIST properties as well as its antagonism, it is meant for getting animals out of, say, a tranquilized state induced by carfentanil or any of the other too-strong-for-human opioids. Revivon isn't even in hospitals for human usage, it comes WITH carfentanil and other super-strong large-animal opioids, to be used after the opioid agonist once moving/tranquilizing/whatever is complete.
