This depends on the patient’s progress as well as the scope of their substance use history. Further medical support may be necessary for those patients experiencing associated physical health issues and lingering withdrawal symptoms. Ambulatory or inpatient detox is essential to assist patients to overcome painful withdrawal symptoms in a safe manner.
