One typically needs at least 3 days to see any effects from Fentanyl when first starting it. This is the time needed for the blood levels to reach "steady state"... and begin to really work.

If you only tried it for a day...and gave up...then you didn't give it a chance to get going for you. Of course dose is an issue, but some people don't respond well to opiates for nerve pain. It can be highly individualistic.
