Medical detox is supervised withdrawal from alcohol or drugs, with doctors and nurses who can treat symptoms as they come. It is the safest way to stop alcohol, benzodiazepines and opioids, where withdrawal can be severe or even dangerous.
Detox usually lasts 3 to 10 days. It is the first step, not the whole treatment, so a good detox program plans your transfer to residential or outpatient care before you leave.
What to expect
- Assessment of what you use, how much and for how long
- Symptom monitoring several times a day
- Physician oversight for alcohol, benzodiazepine or opioid withdrawal
- Counseling to start treatment planning
