Alcohol and drug detoxification doesn't need to be an uncomfortable process, as it can be managed and made completely safe in the event the individual detoxing is in the hands of detoxification professionals. Individuals who are detoxing might not recognize that besides the withdrawal and other effects experienced during detoxification, their health and wellbeing may be at risk. Specific substances may cause seizures and other severe symptoms which may be deadly during detoxification. Alcohol is an example of this, and anybody that is detoxing from alcohol should be treated inside a specialist setting like a detox facility or alcohol and drug treatment center to prevent any severe symptoms. Certain medical drugs also result in such symptoms, and it is never safe to abruptly quit using almost any medical drug unless in a drug and alcohol detoxification center or medical. Issues can come up with other drugs also, if a person's health may be compromised as a result of addiction, as is usually the case. Detox Professionals will assess an individual's drug and alcohol use history whenever they arrive for alcohol and drug detoxification, and see if any particular intervention is necessary to be sure that alcohol and drug detoxification is a smooth and safe process.
