Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
How Do I Overcome The Withdrawal Symptoms Of Fentanyl?
I have been using prescribed fentanyl, allowed to use one 100mcg/h, =16.6mg of fentanyl per day. I have used them buccaly instead of wearing them. I have done the conversions, and it equals about 1500 mg of morphine per day. I have been at this dose for the last 3000 days. I m in deep water and i don t know how to get off this stuff . I ve tried several times, and ended up hospitalized each time from the physical withdrawal symptoms.
I understand your problem, opioid addiction is a serious problem and difficult to get rid of. However it always possible but it is best done under a professional care as self programs many times fail. The treatment consists of certain drugs, counseling, and behavioral therapies.
This is called Medicine Assisted therapy (MAT). So you should talk to your doctor about it and I am hopeful, if you have a will you will find a way.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mahboob Ur Rahman,
General & Family Physician
