Alcohol detox in Yerevan
Medical assessment, support for alcohol withdrawal and selection of a safer outpatient, home or monitored setting.
Alcohol detoxification is not a generic ‘cleanse’. It is a medical stage for assessing and managing intoxication or withdrawal more safely. Risk depends on duration of use, previous seizures or delirium, medical conditions, medication and the current presentation.
Risk and the required level of observation are decided before procedures, setting and cost are discussed.
When not to wait
Seizures, confusion, hallucinations, loss of consciousness, abnormal breathing, severe chest pain or rapid deterioration require a call to 112. A clinic enquiry does not replace emergency care.
- Do not leave an unconscious or confused person alone
- Do not combine alcohol with sleeping or sedating medication
- Do not abruptly stop prolonged heavy use without a risk assessment
How the setting is chosen
The assessment covers the last drink, duration of the episode, withdrawal symptoms, vital signs, long-term conditions and medication. Options may include outpatient care, a home visit, observation at the centre or hospital referral.
- Outpatient care for stable, lower-risk situations
- Home care only with a suitable environment and supervision
- Inpatient care for complications or a high risk of deterioration
Share only what you feel ready to share. A professional can distinguish an emergency from a planned-care need and suggest one realistic next step.

Is an IV drip all that is needed?
