Suffering From Fentanyl Addiction?
Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid sometimes used to provide relief after surgery, in medically monitored doses. Now it is being sold on the street, sometimes laced in heroin or cocaine, with many not realizing they are taking fentanyl until it is too late. It is most often consumed through snorting or injection.
Fentanyl is the leading drug causing overdose and death across the United States. It is highly addictive and dangerous. It slows down the nervous system, respiratory and cardiovascular system.
We understand the difficulty in overcoming fentanyl addiction. Recognizing the signs and symptoms of fentanyl abuse is important to start detox and get clean.
What is Fentanyl Withdrawal?
Fentanyl withdrawal symptoms begins 6 to 12 hours after last use. They are intense and often painful such as nausea, constipation, diarrhea, sweating, chills, muscle fatigue, and mental disturbances such as anxiety or mood swings. These symptoms, paired with intense cravings, can make it nearly impossible to withdraw from fentanyl without medical intervention.
Safe withdrawal from fentanyl requires medically supervised detox. Here, medical staff are available 24/7 to monitor vitals, make sure patients are stabilized, and prescribe medication assistance to alleviate pain and cravings.

Withdrawal can start as soon as 4-8 hours after last consumption. The general timeline for detoxing is four to ten days for long-term users.
When you arrive at the detox facility you will go through a comprehensive admissions process to evaluate your medical history and a treatment plan will be created for you based on your needs.
