Medical Detoxification
Doctor-supervised withdrawal management so that stopping is safe, comfortable and the first step of real recovery.
๐ Call for Help Free Confidential EnquiryDetoxification (detox) is the process of clearing a substance from the body while managing the withdrawal symptoms that follow. Done at home without medical care, detox can be painful and, for alcohol and sedative tablets, dangerous. Done under supervision, it is safer and far more comfortable.
Detox is only the beginning. On its own it does not treat the reasons behind addiction, so it is always followed by counselling, therapy and a relapse prevention plan.
What It Includes
- Medical examination and necessary tests
- Doctor and nursing monitoring throughout withdrawal
- Medicines to ease withdrawal symptoms and prevent complications
- Hydration, nutrition and rest
- Emotional support from the first day
- A planned move into therapy and rehabilitation
Who It Helps
- People who are physically dependent on a substance
- Anyone who has tried and failed to quit at home
- Alcohol, sedative tablet and opioid users, where withdrawal can be risky
- People with other medical or mental health conditions
- Anyone unsure how their body will react to stopping
