Fentanyl effects the heart rate, BP, and respiratory system.
Based on how much is ingested as a time, it can decrease the heart rate to as much as 25%!!
If this is in a hospital, then the computers  can let the staff know ASAP, but on the streets, it can instantly cause death.
Experienced drug users carry a stimulant along with fentanyl. So if they feel like their BP goes too low, they can use the stimulant to fix the problem. But sometimes, combining the two can cause instant death too!

Fentanyl is just another version of Heroin. It was "safer" in the past, when it was first introduced. It was not illegal. So people used it to get the high instead of using Heroin, so they would not get in trouble.
Today, users just want to use Fentanyl so they can get the high quicker and for longer.

Fentanyl acts on the central nervous system, similar to Heroin. It can lead to:

Drowsiness

Hallucinations

Nausea

Respiratory depression

People can build up tolerance. This means the more often you use it, the more you will need . The"high" feeling of fentanyl may last up to 72 hours! But it can also only last 10 hours! This depends on the way you put it into your body (ingestion).
