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