During medically supervised opioid detox, patients can expect a thorough medical evaluation to assess their opioid use history and overall health. The detox process usually takes place in a hospital, where medical staff monitor the patient’s vital signs and manage withdrawal symptoms. Medications are often used to reduce discomfort and prevent severe symptoms. After the initial detox phase, patients typically receive post-detox care to ensure they stabilize fully before leaving the facility. Programs like the Waismann Method offer a complete and comprehensive approach to detox, focusing on both physical and emotional care.
