Substances We Treat at RCA Danvers
RCA at Danvers provides medical detox for a wide range of substances, including:
Alcohol
Alcohol withdrawal can cause serious, even life-threatening complications like seizures, hallucinations, and delirium tremens (DTs). Monitoring is essential for your safety.
Opioids
From heroin to fentanyl to prescription pain medications, opioid detox can involve flu-like symptoms, cravings, and emotional distress. MAT may be used to support the process.
Benzodiazepines
Drugs like Xanax, Ativan, and Klonopin require gradual tapering under medical supervision to avoid dangerous withdrawal effects, including seizures.
Polysubstance Use
Many patients use more than one substance. Our experienced team is trained to safely manage complex detox cases.
