Facts

  • Women are unable to metabolize alcohol as efficiently as men because they have less of a liver enzyme (dehydrogenase) that converts alcohol into an inactive substance.
  • Much like other opiate drugs such as heroin and morphine, fentanyl works on areas of the brain that control pain, pleasure and emotions.
  • Pregnant methamphetamine users put their fetus at heightened risk of having meth withdrawal symptoms after it is born.
  • Studies show that alcohol consumption may interfere directly with medications used for HIV, essentially blocking their effectiveness.

Vinton, Virginia - Detoxification

Men and women who are physically reliant to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will initially go through detox before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is simply the process of the drug being removed from one's system, which is often uncomfortable and may hold risks if not performed in a setting which can provide appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detox services are supplied at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug rehabilitation facility which can effectively oversee and supply medical supervision for men and women who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services generally include insuring the person is as comfortable as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, delivering proper nutrition and ensuring the particular person is getting proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as required to make the detox process as smooth and safe as possible. The person in detoxification will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some sort of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detox facility or drug rehab facility which can present detox services, the client will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to guarantee that any difficulties are handled as quickly and safely as possible.
