Facts

  • People infected with HIV are nearly twice as likely to abuse alcohol as people in the general population who are not infected with the disease.
  • Women and low-body-weight males have a lesser capacity to break alcohol down in the same amount of time as a heavier male or female, resulting in higher blood alcohol concentration.
  • When a Vicodin overdose is suspected, emergency medical help should be summoned immediately as it can be fatal.
  • Most opiate addicted individuals are no longer capable of holding down a job which often leads to loss of health insurance coverage. Diseases and conditions that develop as a result of opiate addiction are therefore often paid for through public funds because these individuals cannot pay for their own treatment.

Detoxification - Athens

Men and women who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will first go through detoxification before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is simply the procedure of the drug being eradicated from one's system, which is generally uncomfortable and may hold risks if not performed in a setting which can offer appropriate support and medical intervention as needed. Detox services are provided at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug rehabilitation facility which can appropriately oversee and supply medical supervision for persons who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services frequently include insuring the client is as comfortable as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, supplying proper nutrition and making certain the particular person is getting proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as wanted to make the detoxification process as easy and safe as possible. The particular person in detoxification will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some kind of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detoxification facility or drug rehabilitation facility which can supply detoxification services, the individual will have detox staff at their disposal around the clock to ensure that any difficulties are fixed as quickly and safely as possible.
