Facts

  • Individuals who use corticosteroids or cortisone (an anti-inflammatory) can develop dependence to these drugs and may experience withdrawal syndrome if they suddenly stop using them.
  • Typical physical symptoms of drug withdrawal include changes in body temperature, fever, excessive sweating, abdominal pain and nausea and vomiting.
  • When combined, alcohol and tobacco drastically increase one's risk of becoming ill with certain cancers.
  • Use of barbiturates decreases REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, during which dreaming takes place, and therefore withdrawal often results in sleep disruptions such as nightmares, insomnia, or vivid dreaming.

Individuals who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want help will 1st go through detox before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is simply the process of the drug being removed from one's system, which is usually uncomfortable and may carry risks if not performed in a setting which can supply appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detoxification services are provided at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug treatment facility which can properly oversee and provide medical supervision for individuals who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services generally include insuring the client is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, offering proper nutrition and ensuring the individual is receiving proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as wanted to make the detox process as smooth and safe as possible. The particular person in detoxification will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some sort of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detoxification facility or drug rehabilitation facility which can present detoxification services, the individual will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to make certain that any difficulties are handled as quickly and safely as possible.
