Detoxification of people having mild withdrawal symptoms from alcohol or drugs and people using cocaine, marijuana, opioids, or methamphetamine, do not generally need to be hospitalized for detoxification. However, they may need a referral for an outside medical assessment, medical evaluation and medications to assist with the discomfort of withdrawal and associated symptoms.
