About medical detox

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

• Physician oversight for alcohol, benzodiazepine or opioid withdrawal
• A warm handoff to residential or outpatient care
• Assessment of what you use, how much and for how long
• Counseling to start treatment planning

Medical Detox in Texas: what to know

Detox manages withdrawal; it doesn't treat addiction by itself. When you call detox programs near Keene, ask whether they can move you straight into residential or outpatient treatment so there's no gap after discharge.

Questions worth asking

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