Medical detox is an essential first step in addiction treatment. During a medically supervised detox, the body rids drugs and alcohol from its system, which can include uncomfortable or dangerous withdrawal symptoms. Our medical team provides 24/7 supervision and treatment for side effects to make detox as safe and comfortable as possible.
Safely stopping drugs or alcohol may require medical detox if any of these apply to you.
If any of these items apply to you, please call 856-890-9449 now. A Recovery Advocate is standing by to discuss the right treatment plan for you.
The duration of medical detox depends on the substance used, withdrawal symptoms and physical health. Most clients complete medically supervised detox in 5–7 days.
