GREAT TIPS TO FOLLOW DURING
ALCOHOL DETOXIFICATION
Planned withdrawal from alcohol
This method is pocket friendly and can be done at home. Cutting down on
alcohol consumption requires dedication as it is not easy to just stop
drinking. You can start by cutting down by one, then followed by a few more
until you are able to drop the habit altogether.
Alcohol withdrawal can be followed by symptoms such as anxiety,
irritability, fatigue and even seizures. Try to monitor your symptoms and
seek immediate medical help when you sense extreme symptoms.
Medical detox
Medical detox is usually administered at a medical facility as some are
highly addictive. Not only do they suppress the urge for alcohol but also
help reduce the withdrawal symptoms that follow thereafter. They also help
one to sleep. They include Thiamine, also known as vitamin B and
Anxiolytic.
