Individuals who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want help will 1st go through detoxification before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is basically the procedure of the drug being eliminated from one's system, which is typically uncomfortable and may carry risks if not carried out in a setting which can offer appropriate support and medical intervention as required.
