Best Answer

Delirium tremens, also called DTs or alcohol withdrawal delirium (AWD), is a severe type of withdrawal from alcohol. It usually starts about 2 to 3 days after someone dependent on alcohol ends a long drinking binge.

DTs usually last for 2 to 3 days, but symptoms may linger for as long as a week.

About 5% of people in alcohol withdrawal get DTs. If untreated, delirium tremens can cause a heart attack, stroke, and death.

DT is often used as an abbreviation for delirium tremens. This is the phonomenon that is also referred to as "the shakes" when one is drunk enough to be trembling.
