Home‐based detoxification for neonatal abstinence syndrome reduces length of hospital admission without prolonging treatment

Neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) is a drug withdrawal syndrome, secondary to in utero chemical exposure and characterised by tremor, irritability and feed intolerance. It often requires prolonged hospital treatment and separation of families. Outpatient therapy may reduce this burden, but current literature is sparse. This review aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of our home‐based detoxification programme and compare it with standard inpatient care.
