Alcohol Rehab

Last reviewed 2026-08-01

Alcohol use disorder treatment typically starts with an assessment of drinking severity and physical dependence, since alcohol withdrawal — unlike withdrawal from many other substances — can be medically dangerous and in some cases life-threatening without supervision.

Medical detox first, when needed

For anyone with heavy, sustained alcohol use, medically supervised detox is the safe starting point, not an optional add-on. Symptoms can include seizures or delirium tremens in severe cases.

After detox

Treatment then typically moves into therapy — addressing the patterns and triggers behind drinking — plus, for many people, FDA-approved medications like naltrexone or acamprosate that reduce cravings.
