Residential / inpatientMedical detoxDual diagnosisAbout 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
- Nursing staff available around the clock
- A plan for the next level of care
- Rest, hydration and nutrition support
- Medication to ease withdrawal symptoms
What Texas rules mean for 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.
What to ask a program
- Which substances does the program manage?
- Can it transfer me straight into treatment?
- Does it start buprenorphine for opioid withdrawal?

Frequently asked questions
Should someone from Olivarez stay in Texas for treatment?
For most Texans with a Texas health plan, yes. In-network benefits are easiest to use at Texas programs, family can take part in family sessions, and aftercare near home is simpler to arrange. Some people choose a program in a different part of Texas to get distance from where they used.
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.
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.
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.
