Understanding the Risks of Fentanyl

Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid estimated to be up to 50 times stronger than heroin and 100 times more potent than morphine. Because of its high potency, even small doses can suppress breathing and lead to overdose. Illicit fentanyl is often mixed with other drugs without users’ knowledge, dramatically increasing the risk of accidental poisoning. Withdrawal from fentanyl can trigger intense cravings, anxiety, muscle aches and insomnia, making professional support vital.

Comprehensive Treatment Approach

Medically Supervised Detox

Detoxification is conducted under medical supervision to manage withdrawal safely and comfortably. Clinical teams monitor vital signs and provide medications as needed to stabilise patients.

Evidence‑Based Therapies

Programmes incorporate CBT, DBT and trauma‑informed counselling to address underlying issues driving substance use. Medication‑assisted treatment (MAT) may be used to reduce cravings and prevent relapse.

Holistic Support

Clients engage in mindfulness, yoga and fitness classes to restore physical and emotional balance. Nutritional guidance and sleep hygiene help rebuild health and resilience.
