Doesn't matter. What matters is the amount of alcohol. Just check in with your Doctor. Any other drug, even heroin you can cold turkey from. Alcohol can fuck you up very badly. Also your doctor can give you anti craving medication to get you through the first week. Its a no brainer "Onset of withdrawal is usually 6-24 hours after the last intake although withdrawal can occur when the BAL is decreasing and it does not have to be zero. Withdrawal can last for 10 – 14 days after the last intake and the most severe withdrawals typically occur between 2-5 days. Long acting benzodiazepines such as diazepam, here in Australia, or chlordiazepoxide, in the UK, are used to manage alcohol withdrawal and if delirium tremens hallucinations are also present then an anti-psychotic, such as haloperidol or droperidol, (or others such as olanzapine) may also be considered and administered. In clients with liver disease oxazepam is the recommended drug here in Australia. Severe withdrawal may require ICU admission and midazolam infusion and specialist ATODS input. The therapeutic aim is to have the patient in a mildly sedated, but easily rousable, state during withdrawal. Doses should be withheld if over-sedation occurs. If a patient has a history of alcohol withdrawal syndrome, alcohol withdrawal related seizures and delirium tremens then a 5 day fixed scheduled tapering dose of benzodiazepines is recommended. Otherwise dose prescription and administration is titrated according to AWS score. Medical staff review is required if a moderate withdrawal is assessed and urgent medical review if severe withdrawal. Clients can deteriorate rapidly during withdrawal so staff are vigilant particuarly if there are underlying co-morbidities and the patient is not responding to treatment. https://ahangoverfreelife.com/2019/05/13/alcohol-withdrawal-scale-aws/
