OPD or admission: how a de-addiction centre decides

Not every patient needs to stay in a de-addiction centre. Doctors look at the substance, the daily quantity, past withdrawal problems, physical health and the support available at home. Mild cannabis or tobacco use is often treated through regular OPD visits. Daily heavy drinking, smack, chitta or high doses of sleeping pills usually need a short admission so withdrawal can be managed safely. When families from Udupi call us, we help them understand which route is right before they spend money.

Addiction in Karnataka: what families in Udupi should know

Across South India, alcohol remains the leading reason families seek de-addiction help. Ganja is common among young people, and metros like Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Chennai report rising use of synthetic and party drugs.

Udupi is one of the districts of Karnataka from where families regularly reach out to us. If a suitable centre is not available right inside Udupi, we look at trusted options in nearby Raichur, Kodagu, Chitradurga so that treatment is never out of reach.
