Chinese term or phrase: A fen tai ni
This is the name of an anesthesia drug. Fen tai ni is Fentanyl. Does anyone know what "A fen tai ni" is?

It seems "A" stands for "al-" or Alpha-".
Explanation:
It seems "A" stands for "al-" or Alpha-". This is my guess work:

1.阿華吩坦尼(Alfentanyl)
2.阿法—甲基吩坦尼 (Alpha—methyl—fentanyl).
3. 乙醯阿法甲基吩坦尼(Acetyl—alpha—methylfentanyl)

"垻鋷懢擈(A fen tai ni )"="Alfentanil"


Explanation:
"A fen tai ni" sounds like "垻鋷懢擈"in Chinese.
According to my <English-Chinese and Chinses-English Dictionary of Medicine>, "Alfentanil" = "垻鋷懢擈(A fen tai ni )". Sometimes it is called "墱鋷懢擈". It is a very strong anesthesia drug. It is 4 times faster than "Fentanyl" (杮昳婲澚夣, 斾鋷懢擈夣4攞").
"Fentanyl" = "鋷懢擈"

Sorry, I just found that there had been a problem for the Chinese encoding.
Anyway, I used the pronounciation you provided and found it is listed as \"Alfentanil\" which is a very strong anesthesia drug. It is 4 times faster than \"Fentanyl\".
