This process can be a critical step on the road to recovery from drug addiction. Drug detoxification is done through drug therapy and through the use of hardware methods to remove toxins from the body. But detox alone is not enough to fully recover from addiction.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title \" >Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 eztoc-toggle-hide-by-default' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/garmed.com.ua\/en\/service\/drug-addiction-treatment-methods-of-fighting-addiction\/how-drug-detoxification-is-carried-out\/#medical_detoxification\" title=\"Medical detoxification\">Medical detoxification<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/garmed.com.ua\/en\/service\/drug-addiction-treatment-methods-of-fighting-addiction\/how-drug-detoxification-is-carried-out\/#drug_detoxification_prices_cost\" title=\"Drug Detoxification Prices (Cost)\">Drug Detoxification Prices (Cost)<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/garmed.com.ua\/en\/service\/drug-addiction-treatment-methods-of-fighting-addiction\/how-drug-detoxification-is-carried-out\/#results_of_detoxification\" title=\"Results of detoxification\">Results of detoxification<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/garmed.com.ua\/en\/service\/drug-addiction-treatment-methods-of-fighting-addiction\/how-drug-detoxification-is-carried-out\/#you_may_also_be_interested_in\" title=\"You may also be interested in:\">You may also be interested in:<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/garmed.com.ua\/en\/service\/drug-addiction-treatment-methods-of-fighting-addiction\/how-drug-detoxification-is-carried-out\/#you_may_also_need\" title=\"You may also need:\">You may also need:<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"medical_detoxification\"><\/span>Medical detoxification<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Drug detoxification with drugs and machines should be carried out in medical facilities where the patient is under constant supervision of specialists. Doctors may also administer medication to ease withdrawal symptoms and maintain normal body functions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In some cases, substitution medications such as methadone or buprenorphine are used to help reduce the desire for drugs and reduce withdrawal symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During detoxification, it is important to maintain electrolyte balance through intravenous solutions and other medical procedures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In some cases, it is possible to detoxify from drug poisoning at home. After primary care, the patient should undergo inpatient treatment, which is the only way to get rid of addiction and start a new life without drugs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Psychological support<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Psychological therapies, including cognitive behavioural therapy and psychotherapy, help patients cope with the psychological aspects of addiction and develop strategies to prevent relapse. Psychological help can be individualised or involve participation in group sessions and meeting others going through similar difficulties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"drug_detoxification_prices_cost\"><\/span>Drug Detoxification Prices (Cost)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td>Inpatient drug detoxification<\/td><td>from 2700 UAH<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Outpatient drug detoxification<\/td><td>from 2400 UAH<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Home drug detoxification<\/td><td>3700 UAH<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"results_of_detoxification\"><\/span>Results of detoxification<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Drug detoxification helps to address several issues:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The main goal of detoxification is to cleanse the body of drugs and eliminate physical dependence;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>reduction of physical withdrawal symptoms such as drug cravings (withdrawal), insomnia, muscle and joint pain, nausea, etc.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Improving the patient&#8217;s psychological well-being and ability to regain control of their life;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>the opportunity to move on to the next stage of treatment, such as rehabilitation and long-term support.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is important to note that detoxification is only the first step in drug treatment.
