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