About Echelon Concierge Detox

Benzodiazepine use has quietly grown into a hidden epidemic—one that even much of the medical community underestimates in terms of severity and complexity. At Echelon Detox, we’ve developed a specialized program—sometimes called Benzo Bootcamp—to help patients taper off safely and gradually under medical supervision. Because benzo detox can be one of the most difficult and dangerous processes, expert care is essential.

Benzodiazepines, often referred to as “benzos,” are widely prescribed to treat conditions such as seizures, insomnia, and anxiety. By slowing brain activity, they create a sense of calm and relief. Some of the most commonly prescribed medications in this class include:

• Xanax
   
• Klonopin
   
• Ativan
   
• Valium
   

When used occasionally and under close medical oversight, benzodiazepines can be safe and effective. However, daily or long-term use often leads to tolerance, dependence, and even “inter-dose” withdrawal—where symptoms emerge between scheduled doses.

Detoxing from benzodiazepines is known to be both difficult and dangerous, often requiring close medical monitoring. Withdrawal symptoms can vary in severity and duration, lasting anywhere from weeks to months, depending on factors such as age, gender, dosage, and length of use.

Some potential withdrawal symptoms include:

• Anxiety and agitation
   
• Nausea and vomiting
   
• Sweating and tremors
   
• Diarrhea
   
• Seizures
   
• Heart palpitations
   
• Short-term memory issues
   

Because of these risks, attempting to detox from benzos alone is unsafe. With Echelon Detox, patients receive continuous, one-on-one medical support in the comfort of their own home—ensuring both safety and dignity while navigating this challenging process.
