It depends on the person and how long patches have been used, but in general you'll start feeling withdrawals around 6-8 hours after the patch dose expires. It takes another few days before it's really out of your system. If you've been using Fentanyl for a long time, it'll take days or weeks depending on how much and how long.

This refers to a Fentanyl Transdermal patch, which is commonly used for chronic pain patients like myself that need continuous long-term opiate therapy. It is regulated by body heat, and is extremely effective. There are several doses - 12.5, 25, 50, 75 and 100mcg patches, all of which can be used with one another to make specific dosages. For example, though my normal dose is 100mcg, I typically have to use 200mcg, so I'll use 2 100mcg patches.
How long do i have to wait to use a Fentanyl 100 mcg patch after taking a oxy 80 mg?
Everyone's different, but in general it takes several hours (especially if you're already opiate tolerant by using OxyContin) for Fentanyl to achieve a dosage equivalent to what you're taking. You want to adjust your patch attachment time so that when your OxyContin dose is going down, the patch dose is ramping up. Your doctor should have already told you this; keep in mind that initial patch doses are skewed toward the low end of the dosage chart for safety, so your initial dose might not cut it. Make sure you've got enough breakthrough meds available until you can get your patch dose correct.
Is Fentanyl an anesthetic medication?
Fentanyl originally was developed as an anesthetic, and is still widely used today for surgical procedures where the patient needs to be conscious (relatively) and able to respond to commands (e.g., bronchoscopy). Fentanyl is 100 times more potent than morphine (100 micrograms of Fentanyl is equivalent to 10mg's of Morphine). Fentanyl patches (Duragesic, e.g.) use concentrated doses of Fentanyl delivered to the bloodstream transdermally over extended periods, which make them ideal for long term chronic pain patients.
