What is medical detox?
Medical detox provides 24/7 supervision and supportive care as 7-OH leaves your system, reducing discomfort and relapse risk.
What to expect
A care team monitors your symptoms and may use medication to ease withdrawal. Detox typically lasts several days, depending on usage history and individual factors.
Life after detox
Detox addresses the physical side of dependence. Continuing into residential or outpatient treatment greatly improves long-term outcomes.
