Fentanyl Treatment and Rehab
There are many types of treatment, including outpatient treatment and inpatient rehab. Both programs offer a combination of individualized and group therapy.
Opioid withdrawal typically sets in about 6–12 hours after the last exposure to the substance, and peaks around day three of detox. Early symptoms of a fentanyl detox include: salivation, anxiety, sweating, irritability, body aches, difficulty breathing and trembling. Symptoms that may occur later in fentanyl withdrawal treatment include abdominal cramping, diarrhea, enlarged pupils, goosebumps, nausea and vomiting. Medicated treatment programs are sometimes started on the first day of withdrawal so the individual can be slowly weaned off the substance.

Integrated treatment ensures that your medical team will take your mental health into account during your fentanyl addiction treatment and recovery. The Recovery Village specializes in integrated treatment for people with a substance use disorder in addition to one or more mental illness(es) such as anorexia, bipolar disorder and more.
One of the most effective methods of co-occurring disorders treatment is cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). This type of therapy helps individuals identify negative thought patterns that feed the recurrence of fentanyl use and mental illness. With continual CBT, over time people can establish healthy thought patterns to replace the negative ones that may have contributed to substance use.
It is never too early to develop a relapse prevention plan, even at the beginning of your fentanyl withdrawal treatment. Many professionals advise beginning recovery with medical detox. At-home detox is not recommended for most, as it can be life-threatening if withdrawal symptoms are severe. The safest option is to have professional oversight during the detox process at a fentanyl rehab center. In a professional setting, you’ll have the assistance of a team that can make the detox process more comfortable.
As you progress through fentanyl rehab, your treatment professionals may develop an aftercare plan for relapse prevention. They can help you find aftercare providers near your home so that you will still have accountability once you leave rehab. During rehab, you can also work with your treatment professionals to develop coping strategies, tactics for managing a sober social life, and more.
