Drug and alcohol detox doesn't need to become a distressing process, as it can be made more manageable and made entirely safe if the individual detoxing is in the hands of detoxification professionals. Individuals who are detoxing might not realize that aside from the withdrawal and other effects experienced during detox, their overall health may be at risk. Specific substances may cause seizures and other serious symptoms which could be deadly during detox. Alcohol is a good example of this, and anyone that is detoxing from alcohol must be treated within a professional setting such as a detoxification center or drug and alcohol rehab program to avoid any serious symptoms. Specific medical drugs also trigger such symptoms, and it is never safe to abruptly cease using almost any medical drug unless in an alcohol and drug detoxification facility or medical. Complications can arise with other drugs also, if a person's health has been compromised due to addiction, as is usually the case. Specialists will evaluate an individual's drug abuse history once they arrive for drug and alcohol detoxification, and see if any particular intervention is necessary to be sure that alcohol and drug detoxification is a smooth and safe process.
