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
- A plan for the next level of care
- Rest, hydration and nutrition support
- Medical screening and vital-sign checks on arrival
- Nursing staff available around the clock
What Texas rules mean for medical detox
Detox manages withdrawal; it doesn't treat addiction by itself. When you call detox programs near Stafford, ask whether they can move you straight into residential or outpatient treatment so there's no gap after discharge.
Questions to ask
- Is a physician on call around the clock?
- Does it start buprenorphine for opioid withdrawal?
- Which substances does the program manage?
