Tammy,

The length of time the hallucinations can last varies from person to person, from a few hours to a few weeks. You can find more information here:

My friend has been in the hospital for Detox 11 days. His mind is not coming back yet and he has hallucinations still. All his vitals are good and a CAT scan of his brain came back ok. How long can this last.

Renee,

I don't have any stats for you about long-term success rates, but I can tell you that follow-up care through contact with a counselor or a support group appears to greatly increase the chances of the alcoholic being able to stay sober over the long term.

Do you have stats/graph on the success rate of recoverying alcoholics?

Hi Anthony,

A number of rehab programs for alcoholics state that they have a 70% or better success rate.

What is the percentage for a person entering for the first time into an alcolhol recovery home of succeeding?
