Understanding Fentanyl Withdrawal
Fentanyl is a very powerful opioid. Some report that it is 50 to 100 times more powerful than heroin. Like heroin, fentanyl is short-acting. Many people who become habituated to using fentanyl have to continue to use it often and in higher doses to avoid the onset of withdrawal symptoms. This rapid increase in tolerance, and tendency to use higher doses, can contribute to a more difficult withdrawal process.
Its potency makes it useful as a pain relief medication, but also dangerous in many circumstances. Because such small amounts are needed to get strong effects, when fentanyl is included in illegal drugs it can make it more difficult to control the dosage.
This can increase the risk of overdose. The CDC reports that fentanyl is the major contributor to both fatal and non-fatal overdose in the US.
The process of withdrawing from Fentanyl is tricky and involves Strong Physical and Mental Effects
Fentanyl connects with intense potency to the brain’s opioid receptors, causing strong physical and mental dependence. When you stop using it, withdrawal symptoms can include intense cravings, muscle pain, feeling sick and nauseous, trouble sleeping, anxiety, and more.
Longer Recovery Period:
Fentanyl withdrawal can be tough compared to other opioids because symptoms can come on sooner, and become stronger with prolonged use. Even though it is short acting, its potency also means that withdrawal symptoms can carry out over a longer period than other opioids. The most intense effects can last 5-10 days. Ibogaine however eliminates these effects.
Comparing Fentanyl Withdrawal to Other Opioids:
Fentanyl withdrawal can be stronger and last longer than withdrawal from other opioids. In part, this is because of fentanyl’s increased potency, and in part it is because common patterns of fentanyl use can lead to higher dosages. The process can include intense cravings, anxiety and muscle discomfort, but fentanyl’s strength can magnify these experiences, potentially making the process more challenging. With Ibogaine there will be no withdrawals or discomfort of any kind.
