How Long Does a Detox in MA Take to Complete

 “How long does detox take?” is the #1 question that most first-time patients ask.

At Mayflower Detox in MA, we understand the apprehension that can keep people from getting the help they need for drug and alcohol addiction. We strive to provide resources that can help patients understand and best prepare themselves for their Massachusetts detox experience.

Below is a simple graphic that details what an example of a Massachusetts detox timeline might look like. Most detox programs at Mayflower in MA consist of two phases: 1) Acute Treatment Services (ATS or medically monitored detox; and 2) and Clinical Stabilization Services (CSS).

For a client who stayed for both detox and residential treatment, their combined, “typical” stay at Mayflower is approximately 3-4 weeks.

Acute Treatment Services (ATS Detox) in MA, also called medically monitored detox. This first part of detox in MA begins the second you walk into Mayflower Detox facilities and can last anywhere from 3-10 days. Here you will work with your clinical team and case manager to focus on overcoming drug and alcohol withdrawal symptoms and removing your physical dependencies on drugs or alcohol. Your progress will be closely monitored during this period, and you will receive medication to treat some of the symptoms of drug and alcohol withdrawal.
