Rehab Treatment for Fentanyl Addiction
Jackson House Recovery Centers offers rehab treatment for fentanyl addiction, providing customized and compassionate care to help individuals regain wellness and move forward with lasting sobriety.
A pain medication, fentanyl is an opioid that can be more powerful than morphine — up to 100 times more powerful. Even small doses of fentanyl can be dangerous and even lead to death. In addition to being fatal, fentanyl can cause depression, strength loss, and other consequences. Fentanyl use in the long term can lead to built-up tolerance of the drug, which lends to an individual using fentanyl more to reach the same results, dramatically increasing the risk of overdose.
Illicit fentanyl is available as a powder, nasal spray, or via pills. Fentanyl available illegally is often combined with other drugs, including heroin, cocaine, or meth.
Symptoms of Addiction
There are multiple ways fentanyl addiction is presented, with symptoms including:
- A tight feeling in the chest
- Compromised coordination
- Hallucination
- Increased heartrate
- Pain in the muscles
- Severe changes in mood
Reasons for Fentanyl Addiction Rehab
The recognition of a fentanyl addiction supplies reason to seek professional treatment, and rehab programs provide significant benefits.
The following signs may be recognized in yourself or in a loved one dealing with fentanyl addiction. Rehab treatment can help restore sobriety and provide services to help address and reverse these addiction indicators:
Feeling of Lost Control
Individuals dealing with fentanyl addiction may feel as though they have lost control. Focusing on fentanyl access may have overridden interest in family responsibilities, relationships, and work obligations. Singular attention on staying high may have taken hold.
Self-Isolation
Another indicator of substance abuse is removing oneself from others. Self-isolation, problems making social connections, and pushing away others are all recognized results of fentanyl addiction.
Financial Problems
Financial issues resulting from substance addiction may include money going toward drug acquisition instead of toward payment of bills. Stealing funds to support a drug addiction may also result.
Emotional Numbness
Consistently feeling emotionally numb is another potential result of substance addiction, including addiction to fentanyl. In cases of substance addiction, healthy emotional variations can be replaced by ongoing emotional numbness.
Benefits of Rehab Treatment
There are many benefits of rehab treatment, including:
Protection against drug overdose and death
Improvement of both mental and physical wellness
Professional healthcare supervision

Rehab for Fentanyl Addiction
Outpatient and inpatient services can both be effective approaches for treating fentanyl addiction. Appropriate services are determined by the level of care an individual requires.
Treatment modalities for fentanyl addiction include detoxification (detox) services, therapy, medication-assisted treatment (MAT), and more.
Detox, Therapies, and Medication-Assisted Treatment
We offer evidence-based and personalized treatment for fentanyl addiction and other substance abuse disorders. Our team provides medically supported detox, multiple therapy offerings, and MAT services as needed.
Detox is used to remove harmful substances from the body and to support stabilization before additional treatment is provided. Therapy treatments from Jackson House Recovery Centers include addiction, individual, group, and family offerings. We also offer recovery meetings as part of our treatment program. As needed to meet client circumstances, MAT is utilized to assist in the transition from fentanyl.
Physical Activity
Physical, mental, and emotional wellness connected to physical activity can all benefit addiction recovery. Two fitness classes are available at our center per week, bringing opportunities for physical activity to benefit client health. These classes are intended to increase clients’ levels of endorphins, decrease their levels of stress, and more.
The low-impact “Gentle Strength and Stability” class is held for 45 minutes on Tuesdays. “Strength and Stretch,” which is also a 45-minute class, is held on Thursdays.
Three Areas of Focus
Three focus areas at our treatment center are community, customization, and nutrition.
Community is supported by clients participating in group activities and preparing meals together. These aspects of care allow for peer interaction and the building of supportive relationships. Customization stems from recognition of the importance of individualized care. We work with clients in forming personalized treatment plans as part of our approach. As for nutrition, substance addiction is known for depleting nutrients from the body, so nutritious meals are provided to replenish nutrients lost to addiction.
