Hospital / inpatientMedical detoxDual diagnosisHow medical detox works
In medical detox, staff watch your vital signs, manage symptoms with medication and keep you safe and comfortable while your body clears the substance. Programs may be hospital-based or in a licensed residential detox unit.
Many Texas residential programs have detox on site, so you can move straight into treatment without a gap.
What to expect
- Assessment of what you use, how much and for how long
- A warm handoff to residential or outpatient care
- Physician oversight for alcohol, benzodiazepine or opioid withdrawal
- Counseling to start treatment planning
Before you choose medical detox
Texas requires licensed detox programs to complete a face-to-face history and physical within 24 hours of admission and to guarantee continuous access to emergency medical care. Outpatient detox is allowed only alongside outpatient treatment, never on its own.
Questions worth asking
- Can it transfer me straight into treatment?
- Does it start buprenorphine for opioid withdrawal?
- Is a physician on call around the clock?

Frequently asked questions
What should I bring to residential rehab?
Bring a photo ID, insurance card, a list of current medications, comfortable clothing for about a week and basic toiletries. Most programs share a packing list and restrict items like alcohol-based products and outside medications.
What if my loved one won't go to treatment?
You can talk with a specialist about how to approach the conversation. In Texas, Health and Safety Code Chapter 462 also lets a family member or other adult apply to the county court for court-ordered treatment, with a physician's certificate attached, when someone's addiction makes them likely to cause serious harm or keep deteriorating. See our guide to court-ordered treatment in Texas.
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.
