Fentanyl Detox Treatment

The first stage in substance abuse treatment is a thorough fentanyl detox. Upon an initial assessment to determine severity, a personalized plan incorporates each person’s specific needs and requirements.

Our drug detox treatment is supervised by our highly qualified medical team, monitoring the progress of detox around the clock, observing withdrawal symptoms as the body is cleansed from traces of the substance.

This constant monitoring is crucial in severe cases of fentanyl addiction, as unpredictable symptoms can become dangerous.

Identifying The Types Of Fentanyl

Pharmaceutical fentanyl prescribed by a healthcare provider is the original legal substance that can be administered in various ways to treat chronic pain.

It can be administered as a patch, tablet, candy, or shot, with the dosage carefully regulated within the prescription for a recommended short period.

On the other hand, fentanyl that has been illegally manufactured can appear in the form of powder, a liquid within nasal sprays, eye drops, blotted on paper, or candy. It is often produced to imitate prescribed opioids in the form of a pill.

More alarming is that illegal manufacturers of fentanyl tend to combine the substance with other potent drugs such as cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, or MDMA to maximize their profits.

They know that it only takes a very small amount of fentanyl to achieve a high, so mixing it with other drugs is cheaper for them to produce with a massive return, and they have no concern regarding the devastating impact these combinations can have.

Signs of Fentanyl Use

Only a medical professional can provide a formal diagnosis of fentanyl addiction when an individual compulsively takes the substance regardless of the damage it has on health. It is referred to as opioid use disorder (OUD).

They typically develop strong cravings and continue to use the substance, knowing the dangers to physical and psychological health, and begin to lose interest in important activities and neglect daily responsibilities.

These issues can lead to further problems if used in dangerous situations such as driving, and severe withdrawal symptoms can appear if the substance is abruptly stopped.

Using fentanyl erratically can be life-threatening, and a large number of overdose deaths are linked to fentanyl abuse.

If anyone shows signs of slow or stopped breathing, loss of consciousness, or making gurgling noises, they require immediate medical help to save their life from a possible opioid overdose.

Fentanyl Withdrawal Symptoms

Fentanyl is a very powerful painkiller and affects the brain by attaching itself to opioid receptors located in areas of the brain that control our emotions and pain.

The brain gradually adapts to the drug when taken for extended periods and lowers its sensitivity, making the only way to feel pleasure is by using the substance. This is called tolerance but does not necessarily mean someone is addicted, but caution should be taken as tolerance can initiate the cycle.

Ending the consumption of fentanyl can be risky if attempting to do it alone as the body reacts in unpredictable ways when the substance is abruptly stopped, provoking undesirable withdrawal symptoms, many of which can lead to serious complications.

Mild symptoms may develop in the form of nausea, diarrhea, insomnia, or sweating, while severe symptoms can involve respiratory distress, seizures, hallucinations, or heart failure.

It is important to understand that withdrawal symptoms may differ from person to person and can be complex due to their unique nature in the body. However, if any symptoms become worse and get out of control, it is important to seek immediate medical attention to intervene.
