Facts

  • Drug craving and depression that an individual experiences during crack withdrawal can last for months following cessation of long-term heavy use of the drug.
  • The FDA has urged physicians to use great caution when prescribing methadone, because of the potential for respiratory distress and dangerous changes in an individual's heart beat that cannot be felt by the patient.
  • PCP is sometimes sold as a substitute for other drugs, raising the risk of toxicity and overdose in unsuspecting users.
  • White wine and clear liquors such as rum, vodka and gin have fewer toxins and tend to cause less frequent and less severe hangovers than darker varieties of alcohol.

Pilot Mound, Iowa - Detoxification

Men and women who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want help will first go through detox before getting 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 carry risks if not carried out in a setting which can offer appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detoxification services are provided at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug rehab facility which can appropriately oversee and present medical supervision for people who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services typically include insuring the individual is as comfortable as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, delivering proper nutrition and making certain the particular person is getting proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as wanted to make the detoxification process as smooth and safe as possible. The particular person in detox 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 rehab facility which can supply detoxification services, the client will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to ensure that any problems are fixed as swiftly and safely as possible.
