Alcohol Detox

 

alcohol Detoxificationis the use of prescribed medication to minimize or prevent the occurrence of alcohol withdrawal symptoms. Uncontrolled withdrawal from alcohol can cause damage and may even be fatal in some circumstances. In these instances, detoxification is absolutely essential for medical reasons. In the case of alcohol detoxification, the usual first choice of medication is chlordiazepoxide (Librium) or diazepam (Valium). Apart from these main detox medications, various vitamins and other additional medicines may be prescribed during the course of the detox to prevent specific symptoms occurring (such as nausea and vomiting, or sleeplessness).
