Our skilled clinicians help individuals overcome addiction from several substances, including:
Whether you’re struggling with alcohol, drugs, or both, our team provides safe and effective medical detox. While everyone’s experience is unique, general substance-specific withdrawal timelines are included below.
Alcohol withdrawal begins within 6-12 hours of the last drink. Early symptoms may include:
Symptoms may escalate over the next 24-48 hours. Those withdrawing after a period of heavy drinking have a higher risk of severe symptoms during this period, including:
Severe symptoms like delirium tremens and seizures typically peak between days two and five. Medical guidance and support during this period are critical.
After day five, physical symptoms begin to resolve. However, psychological symptoms like anxiety and drug cravings may persist for weeks or months.
To prevent relapse and improve long-term recovery outcomes, our drug detox center in Florida strongly encourages transitioning into an inpatient or outpatient treatment program once your critical medical detox phase is complete.
The opioid withdrawal timeline varies depending on the opioid type.
Short-acting opioids (e.g., heroin, fentanyl, tramadol, etc.)

Each person withdrawing from stimulants will have a different experience, depending on their use history, personal tolerance, and metabolism. However, here is a general withdrawal timeline:
Drug and alcohol withdrawal symptoms lasting for more than three weeks are considered post-acute withdrawal syndrome (PAWS). These are typically milder and continue to fade with time. However, complete resolution may take several months.
Post-acute withdrawal syndrome involves a prolonged period of psychological and emotional symptoms after acute withdrawal from a substance. This can lead to prolonged discomfort and an increased risk of relapse.
The severity and duration of PAWS can vary, but it is a common experience for those in recovery, especially if substances were used for extended periods.
Our drug and alcohol detox center in Florida offers several strategies to help manage PAWS symptoms and improve overall well-being during recovery. They include:
PAWS, though temporary, is one of the many reasons why detoxing alone is difficult and potentially dangerous. A comprehensive treatment plan can significantly improve the chances of successful recovery and long-term sobriety.
Detoxing without medical supervision is dangerous because it can cause severe physical and mental symptoms, including an increased risk of:
