What to Expect During Detox
Before moving into behavioral therapy for substance abuse, the first step may be detoxification. During detox, the body eliminates the toxic influences of drugs or alcohol. The detox experience can be different from one person to the next, and the duration of the detoxification process can depend on the specific type and frequency of the substance used. The body is affected by the often unpleasant and potentially risky side-effects of withdrawal, called “withdrawal syndrome.” Because of this, medical supervision is vital. Rosecrance Central Illinois provides medically-monitored withdrawal management as part of the detoxification process.
