No, they are both synthetic but the pain relief is not the same. They are both long lasting pain relievers but the Methadone is less expensive and My understanding is not as effective for severe pain. I take Duragesic (Name Brand Fentanyl) 100mcg patch every 48 hours it does help with the pain but I sweat bad! Don't expect a high it is just for long term pain relief. If you do not have insurance it is expensive and the Generic did not work for me. I do not like the fact that they are synthetic, I felt more comfortable with natural opiates but I built up a tolerance.

Nope - Duragesic and the generic FTP's only have Fentanyl in them, in a gel suspension that's released transdermally over 2-3 days.
