It’s more
powerful than heroin and has dangerous side effects that include an increase in
opioid overdoses across the United States in recent years. The numbers of
people becoming addicted to Fentanyl- or drugs cut with Fentanyl- are
skyrocketing. The illegal manufacturing of Fentanyl has caused the availability
of Fentanyl on the street to increase. Before this drug was illegally
manufactured, it could only be acquired through a prescription from a doctor
for someone who is diagnosed with severe chronic pain.
Today Fentanyl
has become prevalent on Long Islandbecause it is easy to get, and the people
who are addicted to it are suffering from severe opioidwithdrawal symptoms. The
withdrawal symptoms of Fentanyladdiction resemble heroin and other opiate withdrawal
symptoms. These symptoms include restlessness, heavy yawning, enlarged pupils, runny
nose, body aches, tremors/twitching, chills or sweating, anxiety and panic,
cold sweats and goose pimples, stomach cramps, nausea,and vomiting or diarrhea.
Luckily we have Long Island Interventions and we are able to help you on the
road to recovery.
Long Island Interventions
To safely detox
from Fentanyl, medical supervision is necessary to ensure safety and successful
detoxification. Fentanyl detox centers use MAT’s or Medication-Assisted-Treatment
drugs to help the addict tolerate the withdrawal symptoms with little to no
discomfort. The most common drug prescribed to help alleviate withdrawal
symptoms from FentanyladdictionisSuboxone and Methadone. We recommend the best Long Island drug rehabs that deal with fentanyl abuse and opioid dependence.
The Fentanyl
detoxification time frame lasts anywhere from ten days to two weeks. The first
three to five days are the most severe as well as dangerous. Without medical
supervision and detox medications, Fentanyl addicts can relapse, and an
accidental overdose can easily cause a life-threatening emergency. It is
vitally important that anyone who is addicted to Fentanyl receive medical
support during their detoxification.
The
addiction centers we recommend for Fentanyl detox are all supervised by medical
doctors who specialize in opiate and Fentanyl addiction. Every client is
prescribed safe medications to ease their withdrawal symptoms and allowed to
rest while they detox. Once a person has been stabilized a team of substance
abuse counselors, and mental health practitioners provide the client options
for Fentanyl addiction treatment. If you or your loved one has become addicted
to Fentanyl, the first step to stop the physical sickness is to be admitted
into a Fentanyl Detox center and begin on the road to freedom.
