Importance of Detox

The importance of detox for fenanyl addiction

Individuals who become dependent upon the prescription painkiller fentanyl, or a synthetic derivative of fentanyl, face a host of damaging consequences to their health and wellbeing. These extremely addictive opioids create a euphoric high when abused, and since these drugs are more potent than heroin, they are incredibly dangerous.

Over time, people who abuse these types of drugs will require larger doses and more frequent use to achieve the desired effects. Known as developing a tolerance, this experience is the result of one’s body becoming accustomed to the presence of illicit substances in one’s system, and indicates that one’s addiction is becoming more severe.

As a person’s substance use disorder worsens, they will be unable to function at their highest potential as the drug of choice becomes more important than key relationships, professional responsibility, self-care, and personal accountability.

As the cycle of fentanyl or a fentanyl derivative addiction continues, individuals will lose the ability to control their substance use. Should a person attempt to cease their fentanyl use abruptly, a set of painful withdrawal symptoms will soon take hold. Without support, the withdrawal process may seem unbearable, and may serve to entice one to resume their fentanyl or fentanyl derivative use. Sadly, one of the most efficient ways to put an end to the pain of a withdrawal from opioids like fentanyl is to once again ingest one’s drug of choice. This fact makes it incredibly difficult to successfully endure the withdrawal process without relapsing.
