A member asked:
What is the recommended dose of valium per day for severe alcohol withdrawal? and how long should this treatment last usually?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Detox from alcohol: I think there are other drugs used for alcohol withdrawal. The benzos, especially valium is considered to be just another pill form of alcohol and are not a good fit for someone trying to get sober. I would hope you are in a medical setting and not attempting this at home.
