Detoxification

Detoxification is normally the very first step in getting off drugs. It permits a person to be in a supervised environment while they go through withdrawal symptoms for drugs and/or alcohol. There are various types of detoxification. Theyvary from drug-free to medically supervised. A common mistake that quite a few addicts make is to believe that detox is sufficient to kick their habit.

It is always recommended that detox be followed up with some type of treatment plan to uncover the root of why somebody was using drugs in the first place.
