Fentanyl Withdrawals

Is the fear of Fentanyl withdrawal keeping you from getting help with your addiction? It can be a long, difficult road if you decide to go it alone. But you don’t have to. Fentanyl addiction is a treatable condition and withdrawal can be managed to minimize pain and other symptoms. Fentanyl is a potent opioid medication available by prescription and used to treat serious, chronic pain. It is a Schedule II Controlled Substance in the U.S. This federal classification means it has a high potential for abuse and addiction. Fentanyl withdrawal typically kicks in within hours of your last dose. This process begins when the body starts detoxing from the drug. It is essential to seek medical help for Fentanyl detox because withdrawal symptoms can be quite severe, especially among those who have taken it regularly for a long time.

Opiate Withdrawal Syndrome Includes a Host of Symptoms

Using Fentanyl regularly, even for a relatively short-term period, can lead to addiction. A tell-tale sign of Fentanyl addiction is the opiate withdrawal syndrome that sets in once regular use is stopped or lessened. The experience of Fentanyl withdrawal is not the same for all users. For some, it is mild. For others, it can be unbearable without medical help. The withdrawal syndrome associated with the use of opiates includes a wide spectrum of symptoms. They can include: severe drug cravings, sweating, nausea, vomiting, runny nose, yawning, restlessness, weakness, cramps, diarrhea, chills, muscle and bone pain, irritability, agitation and muscle twitching. More severe symptoms could develop in long-term users if they try to detox on their own without medical supervision. These could include seizures which can be fatal.

A Managed Withdrawal Cuts the Chances of Fentanyl Relapse

Depending on factors including the severity of the addiction, Fentanyl withdrawal can last weeks or months. Managing this phase is important because opiate addiction is a progressive condition with a high rate of relapse. An effective detox procedure that targets withdrawal will decrease the chance for a relapse. You do not have to fear withdrawal.
