Managing Withdrawal Symptoms
Many people worry about alcohol withdrawal symptoms, but with the right medical care, they can be effectively managed.
At Restart Recovery, we focus on patient safety by offering medication and medical support to make the detox process easier. The first stage may be difficult, but once you get through it, you'll experience a more fulfilling and enjoyable life.
The Significance of Cleansing the Body
The initial and crucial phase in overcoming alcoholism is detoxification, which removes all alcohol from your body. Although withdrawal symptoms usually diminish within one to two weeks, the timeline may differ depending on the severity of your alcohol use disorder (AUD). A strong start during detox enhances the recovery process and promotes overall well-being.
Symptoms of Withdrawal During Detoxification
Withdrawal symptoms can persist for a few days to several months, varying in intensity from mild to severe.
Different substances lead to distinct withdrawal effects:
-
Synthetic Drugs (e.g., bath salts, ketamine, Ecstasy, LSD, GHB): Symptoms may include depression, aggression, tremors, concentration difficulties, paranoia, irregular heartbeat, and reduced appetite.
-
Stimulants (e.g., cocaine, methamphetamine, anabolic steroids, Adderall): Withdrawal may cause depression, fatigue, apathy, cognitive impairment, and lethargy.
-
Marijuana: Symptoms can involve weight loss, appetite fluctuations, nausea, decreased libido, mood swings, digestive problems, insomnia, and dizziness.
Cravings are a common withdrawal effect, often rooted in mental or emotional triggers. The severity of symptoms depends on the type of substance, duration of use, and amount consumed. Seeking professional support is crucial for managing cravings and preventing relapse.
Comprehensive Detoxification
Integrating holistic therapy into drug detox programs is becoming widely acknowledged as beneficial. This approach focuses on healing the individual physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Popular holistic treatments, such as acupuncture and massage therapy, can help alleviate nausea, vomiting, and discomfort while also encouraging relaxation and improving sleep quality.

The Significance of Detoxification
Detoxification is the crucial initial step in overcoming alcoholism, removing all alcohol from your body. Although withdrawal symptoms usually lessen within one to two weeks, the length of time can differ depending on the severity of your alcohol use disorder (AUD). Building a strong foundation during detox helps speed up the overall healing process and improves well-being.
Comprehending Alcohol Addiction
Chronic alcohol consumption results in physical dependence, causing the brain to become reliant on alcohol’s calming effects. Once you stop drinking, your body requires time to adapt, leading to withdrawal symptoms such as headaches and fever. While some may face mild symptoms, others may experience intense discomfort, making medical supervision during detox essential. Rehabilitation centers can provide medications to help manage pain, enabling you to concentrate on your recovery.
Handling Withdrawal Symptoms
Withdrawal symptoms can vary from mild to life-threatening, depending on how long and how intensely alcohol has been used. Individuals with a long history of heavy drinking are at higher risk for severe symptoms such as seizures or delirium tremens, which can be fatal. As a result, having medical professionals present during detox is essential, particularly for those with underlying health conditions.
At Restart Recovery, we closely monitor your condition and encourage open communication about any symptoms or discomfort. This feedback allows us to customize your treatment for the best possible results.
Detoxification Schedule
Two hours after your last drink: Withdrawal symptoms may start, intensifying over time.
Six to twelve hours: Early signs include headaches, anxiety, shaking, nausea, and irritability.
Day one: Symptoms may worsen, potentially including seizures, hand tremors, and confusion.
Day two: Severe symptoms such as hallucinations and panic attacks may continue.
Three to seven days: A range of withdrawal symptoms can occur, with a risk of delirium tremens.
After the first week: Most symptoms lessen and can be managed with over-the-counter medications. However, post-acute withdrawal syndrome (PAWS) may last for months or even years, leading to ongoing issues like anxiety, low energy, trouble sleeping, and slower reflexes.

Prescription Drug Detox
Comprehending Detoxification
The initial step in overcoming prescription drug addiction is understanding the detox process. Detoxification refers to refraining from or removing harmful substances from the body. In the case of addiction, this means eliminating dangerous prescription drugs such as opioids, stimulants, and CNS depressants.
At our facility, detox is carried out under medical supervision to ensure your safety as your body eliminates these substances. The liver, kidneys, and circulatory system work in unison to remove toxins, and detox symptoms are a natural part of this process.
Frequently Abused Prescription Medications
-
Opioids: Utilized to alleviate intense pain, with common examples including codeine, Oxycodone, hydrocodone, fentanyl, and morphine.
-
Stimulants: Given for conditions like ADHD, narcolepsy, and depression, with drugs such as Adderall and Ritalin being commonly prescribed.
-
CNS Depressants: This category includes barbiturates and benzodiazepines, which are prescribed for anxiety, sleep issues, and epilepsy.
The Significance of Detoxification
Identifying prescription drug abuse can be difficult, and it's easy to blur the line between following a prescription and becoming addicted. Detox helps prevent the continued misuse of these drugs, stopping the problem from worsening. For instance, someone who has built a tolerance to their prescribed medication might resort to more dangerous substances like heroin.
Abruptly stopping certain addictive medications without professional guidance can be life-threatening. As addiction intensifies, so do withdrawal symptoms, highlighting the importance of medically supervised detox.
Symptoms of Withdrawal from Prescription Medications
-
Withdrawal symptoms can persist anywhere from a few days to several months, varying in intensity from mild to severe, depending on factors such as age, physical and psychological traits, duration of substance use, and the specific drug involved.
-
Benzodiazepines: Withdrawal signs may include blurred vision, muscle tension, nausea, irritability, anxiety, depression, sweating, and vivid nightmares. Extended or heavy use can result in hallucinations and seizures.
-
Opioids: Symptoms can include tremors, muscle pain, increased heart rate, restlessness, cramping, watery eyes, anxiety, nausea, vomiting, and sweating.
What is the Safety of Detox?
Medical detox is a secure and efficient method for eliminating toxins from the body during drug withdrawal. A medical team, led by a physician, oversees each stage of treatment, with nurses and addiction therapy specialists carefully monitoring the patient's vital signs to ensure a safe detox process.
What is the Duration of Prescription Drug Detox?
The length and severity of detoxification are influenced by various factors:
-
Individual Factors: Aspects such as body composition, weight, metabolism, and genetics.
-
Substance Type: The kind of drug affects the severity of withdrawal symptoms.
-
Dosage: Larger amounts contribute to quicker tolerance buildup. Duration: Prolonged substance use increases the likelihood of developing physical dependence.
What to Anticipate During Detox
At Restart Recovery, your health and well-being are our top priorities. Every patient in our recovery program undergoes a comprehensive physical examination to evaluate their health, identify any co-existing conditions, and gather a full history of drug use. This information allows us to create a personalized treatment plan.
We closely monitor symptoms and provide appropriate care when needed. Along with medical supervision, our therapists offer emotional support during detox. For patients who need ongoing prescription medications for chronic pain, we provide non-addictive therapies to reduce the risk of dependence.
