Hello, Olivia! How are you?

Fentanyl is a very strong opiate that can also be habit forming, it's over 80 times stronger than Morphine, so it's possible to experience withdrawals even after just using it for a very short time.

The half-life for Fentanyl is approximately 20 to 27 hours, that's the amount of time it will take to reach 50% in your body and full elimination takes 5 to 6 half-lives, so that would be 100 to 162 hours (4.17 to 6.75 days). With will most likely start around that 50% mark.

Having only used it for a short period of time, they shouldn't be severe, but you may still experience chills, fever, nausea, dizziness, diarrhea and etc.

Make sure to check in with your doctor, especially if you get any severe symptoms, or feel that you may be in any type of danger.

Is there anything else I can help with? Are there any other questions or concerns?

As a duregesic user for over 10 years- I have experienced withdrawal symptoms as quickly as 12 hours after patch removed! Very dangerous to stop all at once- please seek medical help if this happens
