Medical Detox

Medical detox is a supervised process of safely removing toxic substances, such as drugs or alcohol, from the body. It typically takes place in a controlled environment, like a hospital or specialized treatment center, where medical professionals can monitor the patient’s health and manage withdrawal symptoms.

The primary goal of medical detox is to help individuals withdraw from substances in a safe and comfortable manner. This process can involve the administration of medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms, prevent complications, and ensure that the body stabilises before starting further treatment, such as therapy or counselling.

Medical detox is the first step in a comprehensive addiction treatment program and is particularly important for substances like alcohol, benzodiazepines, and opioids, where withdrawal can be dangerous or even life-threatening without proper medical care.
