   Depends on what they were abusing and how much they were abusing. The extra of a drug/alcohol a person uses daily, the longer it can take to detox them. Typically the harder the drug and the worse the withdrawal, the longer someone will be in. For example, someone shooting large amounts of heroin daily may be in extra time than someone who snorts cocaine daily in moderate amounts. It is a balance to make sure the person survives the detox procedure since withdrawal can kill. Typical detox times range from 3 to 8 days.

   Normally about 72 hrs but some things can stay in your system longer so it may be longer.

   As some have answered, it takes a different quantity of time to retreat from different drugs and it may depend on how long they have ancient them.

   Then, it also depends on whether the person is single in to detox or whether the person is also in to get treatment as this takes longer. Of course, as far as treatment goes, how long of an inpatient treatment a person may get also depends on how long insurance or someone else will agree to pay for.

   I’m sorry I have no genuine answer for you. I hope with the intention of something I have written has been caring.

   If your b/f has parents who are involved with him, they might have some thought of how long he will stay in detox.

   Hey girlie! It’s been a even as since we’ve talked so I’m glad I got online and saw your question.
   Detox is ordinarily a 30 day program but sometimes will be 28 days. Get in upset and we can shmooze about what’s been going on since I fell off the face of the earth.
   Luv ya
