Subsys spray (fentanyl sublingual [under the tongue]) is an opioid pain medication. An opioid is sometimes called a narcotic.

Subsys spray is used to treat "breakthrough" cancer pain that is not controlled by other medicines. Subsys is taken together with other non-fentanyl narcotic pain medicines that are used around the clock.

Subsys is not for treating pain that is not cancer-related.
