Someone who is basically in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another person may need intensive care and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for clients who should to take part in an actual substance abuse recovery facility once detox is finished.
