Residential / inpatientMedical detoxDual diagnosisWhat medical detox involves
Medically supervised detox takes the guesswork and much of the fear out of quitting. Instead of white-knuckling withdrawal at home, you have a care team managing nausea, anxiety, sleeplessness and cravings around the clock.
The length of detox depends on what you use, how much and for how long, plus your overall health.
What to expect
- A plan for the next level of care
- Medication to ease withdrawal symptoms
- Rest, hydration and nutrition support
- Nursing staff available around the clock

Frequently asked questions
How many medical detox programs are near University?
This page lists 12 medical detox programs within 50 miles of University, sorted by distance. Hillsborough County alone has 4 programs.
How do I get into medical detox near University?
Most admissions start with a phone call. A specialist asks a few questions about substance use, health and insurance, then helps you find a program with an opening. Many residential programs in Florida can admit someone within a day or two once insurance is verified.
How long does medical detox take?
Detox usually takes 3 to 10 days, depending on the substance, how much and how long you have used, and your health. Alcohol and benzodiazepine detox can take longer and needs close supervision.
Is detox enough on its own?
Detox manages withdrawal but does not treat addiction itself. The best results come when detox leads straight into residential or outpatient treatment.
