Opioid withdrawal can be physically and emotionally difficult, and trying to stop using opioids without appropriate support can increase the risk of complications and returning to use. Sunrise Detox Cherry Hill provides medical detox for opioid dependence in New Jersey, with 24/7 medical and nursing support throughout the withdrawal process.
At our Cherry Hill facility, each patient receives an individualized treatment plan based on their opioid use, medical history, current health, withdrawal symptoms, and other clinical needs.

Opioids include prescription medications as well as illicit substances such as heroin and fentanyl. Sunrise Detox Cherry Hill provides detox support for dependence involving a range of opioids, including:
The appropriate detox approach depends on the substance or substances involved, patterns of use, medical history, and other individual factors. Our clinical team evaluates these needs during admission to develop an individualized treatment plan.
Opioid detox begins with an assessment of your health and substance use so the clinical team can determine how to support you through withdrawal. The exact process varies according to individual needs, but care generally includes several key stages.
When you arrive at Sunrise Detox Cherry Hill, the clinical team evaluates your medical history, opioid use, current symptoms, previous withdrawal experiences, and other factors that may affect your care. This information helps guide your individualized detox plan.
As your body adjusts to reducing or stopping opioid use, your care team monitors your symptoms and overall condition. Medical and nursing support is available around the clock so changes can be identified and addressed throughout the stabilization process.
Medications may be used when clinically appropriate to help manage opioid withdrawal symptoms. Medication decisions depend on your individual circumstances and are made and monitored by qualified medical professionals throughout detox.
Before you complete detox, the team will help you consider appropriate next steps based on your needs and recovery goals. Recommendations may include residential treatment, outpatient treatment, therapy, medication-based treatment, peer support, or other ongoing recovery services.

Opioid withdrawal can occur when someone who has developed physical dependence significantly reduces or stops opioid use. Symptoms and their severity can vary based on the opioid involved, patterns and duration of use, overall health, and other individual factors.
Common opioid withdrawal symptoms may include:
Although opioid withdrawal is not typically associated with the same seizure and delirium risks seen with withdrawal from alcohol or benzodiazepines, symptoms can be intensely uncomfortable and may contribute to dehydration, other complications, or a return to opioid use.

Medications may be used as part of opioid detox to help manage withdrawal symptoms and support stabilization. The appropriate approach depends on factors such as the opioid involved, the timing of the patient’s last use, withdrawal symptoms, medical history, and other individual clinical needs.
Sunrise Detox Cherry Hill may use medications such as Suboxone when clinically appropriate as part of an individualized opioid detox plan. Because the timing and use of these medications require careful medical evaluation, treatment decisions are made and monitored by qualified healthcare professionals throughout the detox process.
Medication needs can change as detox progresses. Our medical team monitors each patient’s response and adjusts the treatment plan when clinically appropriate.
Opioid detox can help you move safely through withdrawal, but continued treatment and recovery support are often important after detox is complete. Before you leave Sunrise Detox Cherry Hill, our team will work with you to identify appropriate next steps based on your needs, progress, and recovery goals.
Continuing care may include residential treatment, outpatient treatment, individual or group therapy, medication-based treatment, peer support, and other recovery services. For patients who would benefit from a structured residential setting after detox, Evolve Recovery Center in Stirling, New Jersey, provides residential addiction treatment as part of the broader continuum of care available in New Jersey.
The appropriate next step is different for each person. Our goal is to help you leave detox with a clear plan for continued treatment and support rather than having to determine what comes next on your own.
Many health insurance plans include benefits for substance use disorder treatment, which may include medically supervised opioid detox. Your specific coverage and out-of-pocket costs will depend on your insurance plan, benefits, medical necessity, and other requirements.
Sunrise Detox Cherry Hill accepts most major insurance plans, and our admissions team can help you understand your benefits before treatment begins. You can verify your insurance online or call us to discuss your coverage and available options.
Opioid withdrawal can cause significant physical and psychological symptoms that may be difficult to manage without support. During medically supervised detox, healthcare professionals can monitor your condition, help manage withdrawal symptoms, provide medications when clinically appropriate, and respond if your needs change during the detox process.
The length of opioid detox varies depending on factors such as the opioid involved, how long and how frequently it has been used, your overall health, and your individual response to withdrawal. Some withdrawal symptoms may improve within several days, while others can persist longer. Your care team will monitor your progress and determine when you are medically stable and ready for the next step.
Although opioid withdrawal is not usually life-threatening by itself, symptoms can be extremely uncomfortable and may contribute to dehydration, other complications, or a return to opioid use. Professional detox provides medical monitoring, symptom management, and a structured environment during this early stage of recovery.
Medications may be used when clinically appropriate to help manage opioid withdrawal symptoms and support stabilization. The medication approach depends on your opioid use, withdrawal symptoms, medical history, and other individual factors. All medication decisions should be made and monitored by qualified healthcare professionals.
Detox addresses withdrawal and physical stabilization, but additional treatment may be recommended afterward. Depending on your needs, continuing care may include residential treatment, outpatient care, therapy, medication-based treatment, peer support, or other recovery services. The Sunrise Detox Cherry Hill team can help you plan an appropriate next step before discharge.
