Fentanyl Addiction
The most dangerous drug on the street demands the safest possible help.
Fentanyl is dozens of times stronger than heroin and now contaminates much of the street drug supply. It has made both using and quitting more dangerous than ever, and it is behind the majority of overdose deaths in Canada.
Never detox from fentanyl alone. Tolerance drops fast during withdrawal, so a relapse can be fatal. Supervised, supported withdrawal saves lives, and it is the first step toward getting free.
Signs to watch for
- Rapidly escalating use and tolerance
- Severe, frightening withdrawal within hours
- Using alone or in unsafe situations
- Overdoses or near-misses
- Life narrowing down to getting and using
How we help
- Safe, supervised withdrawal, never alone
- Overdose safety and harm reduction
- Connection to treatment and medication support

You don't have to carry this alone
Whatever you're facing, a confidential, compassionate conversation is one call away. There's no judgement here, only support.
