Addiction Treatment
Fentanyl is 100x more potent than morphine and now present in nearly every illicit drug supply. If fentanyl is involved, the stakes could not be higher — and we treat it accordingly.
Fentanyl now drives the majority of drug overdose deaths in the United States. It's found in counterfeit pills, cocaine, methamphetamine, and even marijuana. A dose the size of a few grains of salt can be fatal. Many people struggling with fentanyl addiction started on prescription opioids or didn't even know they were using fentanyl.
If you or someone you love is using fentanyl in any form, please call us immediately. This is one situation where waiting is not an option.
Fentanyl detox requires careful medical management. Because fentanyl accumulates in fat tissue, withdrawal can be prolonged compared to shorter-acting opioids. Our medical team uses buprenorphine induction and supportive medications to safely transition clients off fentanyl while minimizing withdrawal suffering.
Critical note: Attempting to stop fentanyl without medical supervision dramatically increases overdose risk if relapse occurs, as tolerance drops rapidly.
Medication-Assisted Treatment with buprenorphine (Suboxone) or extended-release naltrexone (Vivitrol) is the most effective approach for fentanyl use disorder. These medications reduce cravings, block the effects of opioids, and prevent overdose. We integrate MAT seamlessly into our full treatment program.
If you're using fentanyl, every day without treatment is a risk you shouldn't take. We're here — call us now.
