01 / FIND CARE
Talk to a treatment provider.
If you are in withdrawal or worried about starting treatment, contact a clinician today. Tell them you use fentanyl and ask about medications for opioid use disorder.
Find treatment near youOpens SAMHSA’s US treatment locator. Ask the provider about availability, insurance, cost, and same-day care.
Prefer to call?
SAMHSA’s free, confidential referral service is available 24/7 in English and Spanish. It provides treatment information and referrals, not emergency medical care.
Call 1-800-662-HELP (4357)What can I say when I call?
“I use fentanyl and want help stopping. Do you offer medication treatment? What is the soonest I can speak with a clinician, and what will it cost?”
If you have no insurance, ask about state-funded services or sliding-scale fees. If symptoms feel severe or you cannot stay safe, seek urgent medical care; call 911 for a life-threatening emergency.
What treatment options can I ask about?
FDA-approved medications for opioid use disorder include buprenorphine, methadone, and naltrexone. A clinician can discuss which option and treatment setting fit your situation.
Tell the clinician about fentanyl, other substances, medications, and any previous difficult withdrawal. Ask how they will manage starting treatment and whether long-acting options are appropriate. This page does not provide a detox plan or medication schedule.

OPTIONAL / AFTER SAFETY AND CARE
Getting safe comes first.
Building what comes next matters too.
You can begin a small, manageable daily practice before or after stopping fentanyl, alongside the care you need. You do not have to complete all five actions to take a useful first step. If you are intoxicated, acutely withdrawing, dizzy, or unwell, focus on safety and care; skip discomfort challenges and adapt movement to your condition.
The First 5 is included with Change Your Feed for $27 USD once. It is a self-directed morning practice for up to five family participants: seven qualifying mornings within 30 days of purchase, a tracker, and one tree funded at purchase with up to five more through qualifying First 5 completions, six trees maximum across the whole purchase.
It does not treat withdrawal or replace addiction treatment. You do not need to buy it to use any resource on this page.
