What medical detox involves

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

• A plan for the next level of care
• Medical screening and vital-sign checks on arrival
• Medication to ease withdrawal symptoms
• Rest, hydration and nutrition support

What Texas rules mean for medical detox

What to ask a program

• Is a physician on call around the clock?
• Which substances does the program manage?
• Does it start buprenorphine for opioid withdrawal?
