A member asked:

Is withdrawal death always acute or can it occur a year later?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Ans: Withdrawn from what? Drug withdrawl or alcohol withdrawl. If you stopped either and do not go back on then would have no withdrawl issues a year later. So not sure what you are asking. Need a better history and specifics
