Men and women who are physically reliant to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will 1st go through detoxification before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is simply the process of the drug being eradicated from one's system, which is generally uncomfortable and may carry risks if not executed in a setting which can supply appropriate support and medical intervention as necessary. Detox services are provided at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug rehabilitation facility which can effectively oversee and present medical supervision for people who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services generally include insuring the individual is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, offering proper nutrition and making certain the individual is getting proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as required to make the detoxification process as easy and safe as possible.
