Drug detox

Drug detox is one of the most painful, uncomfortable processes that patients go through during treatment. Drug detox is a process that must be approached differently, based on the patients drug use. Our physicians at Axis have a clear understanding of the drug detox process, and understand what factors and medications are able to help a patient during his or her drug detox. The goal of Axis drug detox is to eliminate toxins in the body that have accumulated because of constant drug use, but the drug detox process is more than just a cleansing of the body. During this process, patients exhibit numerous signs of withdrawal from drugs and alcohol. Withdrawals from drugs and alcohol include symptoms such as body shakes, heart palpitations, depression, sweating, chills, body cramps, hand tremors, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting, physical pain, anxiety, and even seizures. Withdrawals from alcohol and other drugs can be fatal if not treated properly. They are excruciatingly painful,
and a drug detox can last multiple weeks, depending on the user's drug history and amount of use. During this point of struggle, it is paramount for the patient to be supported with comfort, medication, and constant attention. Drug detox can be the difference between life and death.

Axis drug detox helps prepare the patient for treatment, as the drug detox process begins with a medical drug detox, but follows with physical and emotional withdrawals that result from no longer having the drug or the drink. For physical drug detox, Axis incorporates physical activity and a healthy diet into the drug detox process. For emotional drug detox, each patient has a personal therapist that helps revive the individual's strength, hope, and confidence to face the bitter elements of life.
