Alcohol and drug detoxification doesn't need to be an uncomfortable process, as it can be made more manageable and made entirely safe in the event the individual detoxing is in the hands of detoxification specialists. Those who are detoxing may not recognize that in addition to the withdrawal and other effects experienced during detox, their overall health may be in danger. Specific substances may cause seizures along with other serious symptoms that could be life-threatening during detox. Alcohol is an example of this, and anybody who is detoxing from alcohol needs to be treated inside a professional setting such as a detoxification center or drug and alcohol treatment program in order to avoid any severe symptoms. Certain medical drugs also trigger such symptoms, and it's never safe to abruptly cease using almost any pharmaceutical drug unless within an alcohol and drug detox facility or medical. Problems can come up with other drugs as well, if someone's health has become compromised as a consequence of substance abuse, as is usually the case. Detox Professionals will evaluate a person's drug and alcohol use history once they arrive for alcohol and drug detoxification, and find out if any specific intervention is required to be sure that alcohol and drug detoxification can be a smooth and safe process.
