Withdrawal Management For 20+ Substances
Withdrawal can be uncomfortable and even dangerous, but detoxing under medical supervision allows you to manage symptoms and protect your health. It’s not just about easing physical discomfort, it’s also about getting you ready and in the right mindset for the next phase of care.
The First 24 Hours of Detox
Once detox begins, you may experience withdrawal symptoms like headaches, chills, fatigue, or nausea, depending on the substance you are using. Throughout the first day, our medical staff will monitor your vital signs closely and provide the appropriate support as symptoms begin to develop.
Here’s what you can expect:
- Personalized Assessment - We start with a personalized assessment to understand your symptoms and create a detox plan tailored to your needs.
- 24/7 medical supervision - Our medical team monitors you 24/7, ensuring your safety and adjusting care as needed throughout the detox process.
- Withdrawal begins - Withdrawal can start quickly, often within hours. Our team is ready with 24/7 care to support you immediately.
- Medication Support - When necessary, we use FDA-approved medications to help manage discomfort and cravings — featuring supportive IV therapies like banana bag infusions to address dehydration and replenish essential nutrients.
Complete Support For Detox and Beyond
Treating addiction is more than just detox. While getting the substances out of your body makes cravings and withdrawal symptoms less intense, safe and lasting healing requires further monitoring, behavioral therapies, peer support, and medication if necessary. We offer care for every stage so you always have someone to turn to when you need it.
Structured daily support including individual and group therapies, medication management, nutritional support, holistic care, and recreational activities.
We’ll provide you with resources and guidance, and help you stay connected after treatment. This can include outpatient therapy, support groups, and relapse prevention strategies to keep you on track long-term.

Your Questions, Answered
What is the detox process like?
You’ll start with a medical evaluation to assess your health and substance use history. Once detox begins, medications may be given to manage withdrawal symptoms and keep you comfortable. You’ll be monitored 24/7 to make sure you’re safe and address any complications. The length of your detox will depend on the substance, but most people complete it in a few days to a week.
How can I convince my loved one to get help?
Approach the conversation with compassion and understanding. Express concern without judgment and explain how detox can make the process safer and more comfortable. Offer to explore treatment options and support them through the process.
What should I tell the staff about my current medications?
For our medical team to make safe decisions about managing your symptoms, make sure to be honest about the medications you are taking, including prescriptions, over-the-counter drugs, and supplements.
What happens after detox?
Once you complete detox, you are ready for the next step of treatment which includes therapy, counseling, and peer support. This is where you will learn skills and strategies to maintain your sobriety long after treatment.
Is medical detox required, and how long does it last?
We strongly recommend detox for substances that cause severe withdrawal, like alcohol, opioids, and benzodiazepines. The amount of time it takes depends on your substance use history, overall health, and how your body is responding.
Is it necessary to complete a drug rehab program after detox?
While going through detox will make your withdrawal symptoms and cravings a lot easier to manage, you are at higher risk of relapsing if you skip your drug rehab program. Therapy allows you to identify the root causes of your problems and build skills to maintain your progress.
Will I be given medication to manage withdrawal symptoms?
Depending on the substance and your medical history, medications may be used to reduce discomfort, prevent complications, and make the process more manageable.
How bad will withdrawal symptoms be?
Withdrawal symptoms can be different depending on the substance, how long you’ve been using, and your overall health. Symptoms can range from mild discomfort to severe complications, but with medical supervision, the process can be made safer and more comfortable.
Can I detox if I’ve tried before and relapsed?
Many people go through detox more than once before finding long-term success. Each experience is different, and our team is here to offer the support and tools you need to move forward, no matter your past struggles.
Why can’t I just detox on my own?
Without medical supervision, complications like seizures, dehydration, and heart problems can happen. Detox provides the medical support you need to manage these risks.
