When an addiction is severe enough, it requires a drug or alcohol medical detox to successfully clean the drugs and alcohol out of the body in a safe way that doesn't allow for any medical side effects. This type of detoxification is quite often necessary before an individual can enter into a drug or alcohol rehab, residential addiction treatment facilities, or into sober living programs.
This first step -- though often overshadowed by long-term stays in a residential rehab -- is the most important step in the path to recovery and sobriety. This is the initial cleaning out of the body, and must be done so under strict medical supervision. You see, the drugs and alcohol don't leave the body amicably -- instead, they fight back. While the drugs fight back, the brain and body is also going through withdrawals and is fighting for the drugs to be back in the system (the overpowering urge to go out and use more drugs). This can be a very dangerous situation if the detox is not performed under the strict medical care of a knowledgeable detox professional.
In the cases of a detox that was not performed correctly, in a supervised medical facility, the individual undergoing detox is open to a wide range of dangerous side effects including seizures, heart failure, and even death.
Simply put, if you are considering undergoing detox, make sure that the detox facility is safe, supervised, and the process is performed under the direct care of a knowledgeable medical professional.
