How Long Does It Take To Detox From Methamphetamine?

How Long Does It Take to Detox From Meth? Methamphetamine is a powerful stimulant drug that accelerates heart rate, raises blood pressure and body temperature, increases energy levels and alertness, and suppresses appetite. Withdrawal symptoms can include some of the opposite effects, and they begin when meth processes out of the body. Withdrawal and detox can vary in severity based on the level of dependence on meth. This is related to how much you used, how often you used it, whether it was used with other drugs, how you used it (snorting, injecting, smoking, or ingesting), and any underlying medical or mental health conditions. The timeline for detox and withdrawal can generally look like this: Within 24 of the last dose of meth: Withdrawal symptoms can start, as meth processes out of the body and is no longer active. 7 to 10 days after stopping meth: This is considered the acute phase of withdrawal, and individuals can experience intense side effects. 10 days to 3 weeks after stopping meth: Classified as the subacute phase of withdrawal, during this phase, many of the withdrawal symptoms will start to wane. Depression, increased appetite and excessive eating, and cravings for meth will continue. Several weeks to months after stopping meth: Cravings for meth and low moods can continue after both the acute and subacute phases of withdrawal are over. A meth detox program typically lasts 10 days to 2 weeks in a specialized treatment facility or detox center where you can be medically monitored and supported. Symptoms of withdrawal can be medically managed in this setting. After detox, you can continue on to rehab. Learn More: https://bocarecoverycenter.com/addict...
