Some people detox off fentanyl patches using Subutex or Suboxone (has Naloxone in it).

This sublingual narcotic requires special doctor certification to prescribe, but can be used to detox off other narcotic treatments.

I had a patient on high dose fentanyl (due to a car accident and neck injury) who used Suboxone very successfully. He was able to return to work and was very happy with his new life.
