What are the symptoms of Alcohol Withdrawal? 

The symptoms of alcohol withdrawal vary from person to person, but generally include physical and psychological changes such as irritability, anxiety, insomnia, headaches, nausea, sweating and shaking. If left untreated or unsupported, these can become severe and potentially lead to more serious health implications including seizures and/or delirium tremens. 

At Neworld Medical Detox, our alcohol and drug rehab in Toronto offers medical detox treatment options with friendly professional support, which can help alleviate the effects of withdrawal symptoms. 

How Long Does Alcohol Detoxification Take? 

Alcohol detox will typically take 5 days, depending on the individual’s history and physical characteristics. Symptoms of alcohol withdrawal can last for up to several weeks, which is why 24/7 professional medical care is essential in supporting safe and successful recovery. Because withdrawal can be an unpleasant experience, we go above and beyond to create a comfortable, home-like environment that provides all the comfort you need to stay on track with your addiction treatment goals. 

Medications Used During Alcohol Detoxification Treatment 

At Neworld Medical Detox Centre in Ontario, we offer medication-assisted treatment options to reduce the intensity of the physical and psychological symptoms of withdrawal. Our team of experienced medical professionals and physicians will provide specially-tailored medications that can help make your detox process as comfortable as possible while providing a path towards sustainable and long-term sobriety. 

Once someone becomes addicted to alcohol, detoxifying at home can be uncomfortable and even dangerous. In extreme cases, quitting cold turkey can even be fatal. Without proper medical care, you’re at risk for experiencing cravings, vomiting, tremors, high blood pressure, increased heart rate, seizures, sudden auditory hallucinations, and delirium tremens (DTs). Delirium tremens can begin insidiously starting with minor alcohol withdrawal leading to hallucinations, and even death if not treated. In addition, you’re less likely to be able to quit drinking alcohol without inpatient or outpatient treatment once addiction has set in. 

Simply put, alcohol addiction is too serious a disease to tackle on your own. You need help, and that’s completely normal.
