Detox Programs
Drug & Alcohol Detox
The process of withdrawal is often one of the most significant factors preventing someone from recovery. Withdrawal symptoms happen with any addictive substance, but some are so severe that they can cause a relapse within the first few days or lead to medical complications.
When you experience these withdrawal symptoms, it is because your body is detoxing or removing the last toxins from the substances you use. Detox should not be done alone. With the support and resources of a California drug and alcohol detox facility, your experience can be much safer and more effective.

The Benefits of Detox
The Importance of Detoxing
Alcohol Detox
Alcohol detox in California should be supervised by medical professionals with a professional drug detox in California. Alcohol withdrawal symptoms include things like:
- Nausea
- Anxiety
- Vomit
- Rapid heartbeat
- Insomnia
- Hand tremors
- Confusion
- Seizures
- Hallucinations
- Delirium tremens
Without medication-assisted alcohol detox in California, things like hallucinations, seizures, confusion, and especially delirium tremens can lead to serious health complications, even death. Professional drug detox in California means complete supervision throughout your treatment, over-the-counter and prescription medications to make you as comfortable as possible, and medical staff readily available to treat any possible complications.
Opioid Detoxification
Opioids require medical detox in California. Addiction to prescription painkillers or heroin comes with severe withdrawal symptoms and intense cravings that can be treated with FDA-approved medications. However, you can’t get these medications unless you attend a professional drug detox in California, where you undergo 24-hour medical supervision and complete therapy after your detox. Some symptoms include:
- Fever
- Anxiety
- Diarrhea
- Insomnia
- Irritability
- Increased sweating
- Nausea & vomiting
- Depression
Detoxing from Stimulants
Stimulants like Adderall, Ritalin, methamphetamines, and cocaine come with uncomfortable symptoms like:
- Nightmares
- Fatigue
- Increased appetite
- Insomnia
- Depression
- Suicidal thoughts
Without professional drug detox in California, these withdrawal symptoms place you at high risk for relapse and self-harm.
Benzodiazepine Detox
Some common symptoms of withdrawal include:
- Anxiety
- Insomnia
- Rapid heart rate
- Nausea & vomiting
- Increased sweating
- Hallucinations
- Tremors
- Seizures
When combined, many of these withdrawal symptoms are uncomfortable and dangerous. If you try to detox on your own, experiencing hallucinations, tremors, or seizures could put you in danger. But with supervised medical detox in California, you can trust that staff members can help you when you’re confused and keep you physically safe when you experience tremors or seizures.

What to Expect
Our Drug & Alcohol Detox Centers
When you visit any of the Atlas Healthcare Group facilities, you can expect a high level of personalized attention and support during your stay.
Honesty
When you sign up for California drug and alcohol detox, honesty is the first thing you’ll get. People preparing for drug detox and recovery are often nervous and scared because they don’t know what to expect.
Professional staff members won’t lie to you, but they’ll give you clear expectations of what comes next so that you can prepare yourself for how your withdrawal symptoms will progress, what the staff will do to make you more comfortable, and what resources you have available to you.
Supervision
Your risks during withdrawal get higher and potentially more severe if you have used more than one substance, struggled with substance abuse for years, and taken very high doses. With proper Southern California drug detox, staff members can:
- Give you over-the-counter anti-diarrheal or anti-nausea medication when experiencing diarrhea or nausea. By comparison, if you were to try and detox cold turkey at home without professional supervision and medical detox in California, you might not know that you need those medications, have them at your home, or even be able to get to them when you need them.
- Explain what the time frame will look like and what potential symptoms you will experience based on your background. By comparison, without going to a legitimate detox facility, you might not know what to expect or realize the time frame. Someone might experience the apex of their symptoms at day three and quit because of how uncomfortable it is, and relapse without realizing they are just a few hours away from the worst of their symptoms going down.
Timeframe
When you start California drug and alcohol rehab, the time frame will vary based on what you have used, how long you have used, and how much you have used.
Opioids start to show symptoms within six hours but start to subside after about one week, much like alcohol. For stimulants, your withdrawal symptoms will appear within a few hours and might last a few days. Similarly, the withdrawal symptoms for benzodiazepines can appear within six hours of your last dose, and they reach the most severe levels around the fifth day.

Choosing a Drug & Alcohol Detox in California
Let us help you find the right drug detox in California today.
Many facilities offer drug detox in California, so how do you choose the right one? When you’re reviewing California drug and alcohol detox options, you need to consider things like the detox method they use. If you are struggling with alcoholism or opiate addiction, you need a professional alcohol detox in California, not just a regular medical detox.
You also need to consider whether they accept your insurance, what services and amenities are offered, the credentials of the staff members, and whether the Southern California drug detox facility helps you transition into ongoing addiction care. For many people, especially those using medication-assisted treatment, ongoing therapy is required, so it’s important to find a facility that offers drug detox services and immediately moves you through residential care or outpatient care.
