Fentanyl addiction is one of the most urgent public health concerns today. This synthetic opioid is up to 50 times stronger than heroin and 100 times stronger than morphine, making it highly addictive and extremely dangerous even in tiny amounts. Many people develop fentanyl dependence unintentionally, either through prescribed pain medications or by using street drugs that have been cut with fentanyl without their knowledge.
At R&R Health, we understand the life-threatening nature of fentanyl use and the urgency required for effective treatment. Our program is designed to address the immediate risks of overdose and withdrawal while providing the long-term care needed to heal physically, mentally, and emotionally.
Fentanyl binds quickly to opioid receptors in the brain, creating intense euphoria but also slowing breathing to dangerous levels. Because it is so potent, the risk of overdose is extremely high, especially for individuals with little or no opioid tolerance.
Challenges unique to fentanyl addiction include:
Medical Oversight and Safety
All treatment is led by master’s level clinicians and addiction medicine physicians. If medical detox is necessary, we coordinate immediate referrals to trusted facilities to ensure a safe and supported withdrawal process.
