Your Path toLasting Recovery

The initial decision to seek addiction treatment can be liberating, but the early days of treatment can be challenging. While you may feel ready to commit to long-term sobriety, getting through initial withdrawal symptoms can be difficult. Our medical detox program at Virtue Recovery Las Vegas offers a safe, supervised approach to eliminating drugs or alcohol from your system by providing expert medical and clinical care and support.

Why Medical Supervision Matters

Medical detox is different from other forms of detox in that it takes place under the close supervision of medical professionals specializing in addiction treatment. Our team can provide prescription medications as needed to help reduce uncomfortable withdrawal symptoms. This program is best suited for people who are physically dependent on drugs or alcohol and may be at risk for extremely adverse effects of withdrawal, such as seizures.

At Virtue Recovery Las Vegas, our medical detox treatment program uses evidence-based practices to ensure that clients are as safe and comfortable as possible. We provide 24/7 expert medical and clinical care that includes close monitoring of vital signs and one-on-one individualized support for our clients.

Medical Detox Program FAQ

Common questions about our medical detox program.

How long does medical detox take?

Medical detox typically lasts 3-10 days depending on the substance, severity of dependence, and individual health factors. Alcohol detox usually takes 5-7 days, opioid detox 5-10 days, and benzodiazepine detox may take longer due to tapering protocols. Your medical team at Virtue Recovery Las Vegas monitors your progress daily and adjusts the timeline as needed.

Is detox painful?

Medical detox at Virtue Recovery Las Vegas is designed to minimize discomfort. Our physicians use FDA-approved medications to manage withdrawal symptoms like nausea, anxiety, insomnia, and muscle aches. While some discomfort is normal during withdrawal, medically-supervised detox is significantly safer and more comfortable than attempting to detox on your own.

What medications are used during detox?

Medications depend on the substance being detoxed. For opioid withdrawal, options include buprenorphine (Subutex/Suboxone) and clonidine. For alcohol withdrawal, benzodiazepines and anticonvulsants may be used to prevent seizures. Our medical team at Virtue Recovery Las Vegas selects medications based on your specific needs, medical history, and the latest evidence-based protocols.

What happens after detox?

Detox is the first step, not the complete treatment. After completing detox at Virtue Recovery Las Vegas, most clients transition directly into our residential or outpatient programs for ongoing therapy, counseling, and relapse prevention. Our clinical team helps you create a seamless transition plan before detox ends so there is no gap in your care.
