About medical detox

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

• Counseling to start treatment planning
• Assessment of what you use, how much and for how long
• Symptom monitoring several times a day
• A warm handoff to residential or outpatient care

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 to ask

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