(844) 569-1713About Medical Detox
Medical detox is the process of clearing drugs or alcohol from the body under clinical supervision, so that withdrawal symptoms can be managed safely rather than endured alone. For substances like alcohol, benzodiazepines, and opioids, withdrawal can involve serious medical risk — supervised detox exists specifically to monitor for complications and intervene quickly if they arise.
Most medical detox programs last between 3 and 10 days, depending on the substance involved and the person's health history. Detox on its own treats physical dependence, not the underlying substance use disorder — it's typically the first step before residential, PHP, or outpatient treatment, not a standalone solution.

Common Questions
How long does medical detox take?
Most programs run 3–10 days, depending on the substance and the person's health. Longer or more complex cases, such as poly-substance withdrawal, can take longer.
Is detox covered by insurance?
Most major insurance plans, Medicaid, and Medicare cover medically supervised detox, though coverage details vary by plan and facility. Contact the facility directly to verify benefits.
What happens after detox?
Detox addresses physical withdrawal, not the underlying substance use disorder. Most people move directly into residential, PHP, or outpatient treatment afterward to address the root cause.
Is detox safe to do without medical supervision?
Withdrawal from alcohol, benzodiazepines, and certain other substances can be medically dangerous. Supervised detox exists to monitor for complications and respond quickly if they occur.
