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
- Assessment of what you use, how much and for how long
- Counseling to start treatment planning
- A warm handoff to residential or outpatient care
- Physician oversight for alcohol, benzodiazepine or opioid withdrawal
Before you choose medical detox
Detox manages withdrawal; it doesn't treat addiction by itself. When you call detox programs near Pecos, ask whether they can move you straight into residential or outpatient treatment so there's no gap after discharge.
What to ask a program
- Can it transfer me straight into treatment?
- Does it start buprenorphine for opioid withdrawal?
- Which substances does the program manage?
