Detoxing from benzodiazepines can be particularly challenging, as they are effective for treating anxiety but can become addictive with prolonged use. The physical withdrawal process can be dangerous, which is why a medically supervised taper is necessary. At Arrowwood Addiction Treatment Center, we use a longer-acting benzodiazepine to gradually reduce our clients' dependence, ensuring a safe and comfortable detox experience. This process typically takes around 7 days.
Once detox is complete, our clients work with psychiatric providers to explore alternative, non-addictive methods for managing anxiety. Learning healthy coping strategies is key to preventing relapse and supporting long-term recovery.
