The particular procedures employed during detoxification vary between alcohol and drugs and between drug types e.g. stimulants, opioids, SSRI’s. An easy to understand example of detoxification systems is a simple alcohol detoxification.
The first step in alcohol detoxification systems necessitates immediate cessation of alcohol consumption. Abrupt alcohol cessation has the propensity to instigate serious alcohol withdrawal symptoms for any person physically dependent to alcohol.
The human body naturally rids itself of alcohol by breaking it down into active and inactive metabolites. The liver and kidneys eventually expel the vast majority of alcohol in the body but some alcohol is evaporated out via the alimentary canal and some is excreted through the skin via sweat glands.
Alcohol is a diuretic which has the potential to cause life-threatening dehydration. Alcohol consumption can also cause serious vitamin deficiencies including thiamine deficiency, folate deficiency, magnesium deficiency and calcium deficiency. Alcohol detox employs both hydration and electrolyte therapy to counter the dehydration risks and incorporates vitamin and mineral supplementation to counter rare and deadly vitamin deficiencies.
The second step in alcohol detoxification systems is effective treatment of psychological obsessions and cravings. Replacement therapy is the primary treatment method for psychological obsessions. It promotes effectual psychological change from negative thought looping into positive free thinking. Replacement therapy is simply replacing unhealthy habits with healthy ones.
