Alcohol detoxification in Moscow and the Moscow region

Alcohol detoxification is the process of cleansing the body of the breakdown products of ethyl alcohol by removing harmful substances naturally or through medication.

The manipulations associated with this should not be considered as a complete treatment for alcoholism. They can be the beginning of the path to getting rid of alcohol addiction. Detoxification is carried out exclusively to relieve hangovers, cleanse the body and neutralize toxic substances.

What is detoxification

Narcologists consider detoxification from alcoholism as a procedure to cleanse the body of alcohol breakdown products. Medicines are used that neutralize, bind and remove toxins.

The main component of treatment is infusion therapy. The drugs enter directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the stage of absorption by the gastric mucosa (as in the case of tablet drugs). This provides an immediate and lasting effect. Within 15-20 minutes, dizziness, nausea, and heart pain disappear.

Additionally, tablets and injections are used.

Detoxification

The human body, like a sponge, absorbs and retains everything that enters it from the external environment - be it essential vitamins and minerals or toxins, waste products and heavy metal salts that cause dangerous poisoning.
Metabolism, that is, destruction, occurs, but its speed is noticeably lower than the one with which they occur. For example, to completely neutralize and remove 200 alcohol, it takes about 7–8 hours. But heavy drinkers consume much more drink, and the time interval between drinks may be much less than necessary. Since ancient times, people have noticed that juices help significantly improve human health. Recently, scientists have proven that this is due to the fact that they contain powerful natural antioxidants that are able to bind free radicals of alcohol and remove them along with toxins from the body, improving the functioning of the liver and kidneys.

The second stage lasts a week. Every day you need to drink half a liter of fresh juice of your choice (orange, pomegranate, apple, pear, carrot, pumpkin, celery or other fruits and vegetables). In addition to juices, drink 2 liters of plain water. In order not to go hungry at all, you can eat oatmeal/buckwheat/rice cooked in water for breakfast, a small piece of boiled meat/poultry/fish for lunch, and any fruit or vegetable is allowed for dinner. If there is no appetite, then for the first few days you can abstain from food. This can happen due to strong changes in diet and internal restructuring. On the last day of the stage, do a cleansing enema and move on to the third.

When is detoxification needed?

The appearance of one of the following symptoms during binge drinking is a reason to seek professional help:

1. Rapid pulse.
2. Dizziness.
3. Sleep disorders.
4. Dyspnea.
5. Hallucinations.
6. Impaired movement coordination.
7. Nausea.
8. Diarrhea.
9. Weakness in the legs and tremors in the hands.
10. Heartburn.
11. State of anxiety and depression.

Intoxication develops rapidly and can cause irreparable harm to the patient’s physical and psychological health.

A qualified narcologist at our clinic will conduct detoxification in Ufa and prevent all the inevitable consequences of alcohol poisoning.

Symptoms of alcohol intoxication

There are the following degrees of alcohol poisoning to form a general picture of addiction:

– with mild toxicosis, redness of the face and neck (sometimes to a purple hue), increased heart rate, poor coordination of movements, and shortness of breath are observed. At this stage, home detoxification with available means is acceptable.

– The average degree is characterized by clouding of consciousness, reason, severe nausea, accompanied by vomiting and dizziness, pallor of the skin.

– In case of severe poisoning - deterioration of heart rhythm, sometimes loss of consciousness, insanity, lack of sensitivity to muscle contractions. Additionally, increased aggressiveness and uncontrolled behavior are observed.

With the last two forms of poisoning, it is unacceptable to engage in self-medication and home detoxification. You need to go to the clinic for a comprehensive medicinal cleansing.

Types of detoxification

Dropper for alcohol intoxication at home

Infusion therapy is an excellent method of combating intoxication, as it can take place not only in a hospital, but also at home. If the patient is afraid of publicity or shows aggressive resistance when trying to be transported to the clinic, a narcologist can install drips for alcoholism in Ufa at home.

15-20 minutes after the start of the procedure, the patient will feel the first relief: nausea and dizziness, heart pain disappear. Bed rest is indicated for the next 3-12 hours. During this time, the remaining symptoms of intoxication will finally disappear.

When detoxifying the withdrawal state, a wide range of drugs are used to relieve anxiety, normalize sleep and prevent the development of epileptiform seizures.

In some cases, the use of antidepressants, tranquilizers and nootropics is indicated.

In cases of severe withdrawal syndrome, plasmapheresis with the administration of blood plasma preparations and blood substitutes can be performed in a hospital setting.

In addition, there are many symptomatic treatment regimens aimed at eliminating certain signs of the toxic effect of alcohol on various organs and systems.

Let's not forget that alcohol poisoning can have very severe forms, including comatose states.

In these cases, treatment measures are, in fact, resuscitation, and include the use of analeptic mixtures (solutions of cordiamine, sulfocamphocaine, caffeine subcutaneously or intravenously), polyion mixtures, methods of forced diuresis, hyperbaric oxygenation and artificial ventilation.

The advantages of the hospital include:

1. 24/7 control. The patient is under the supervision of medical staff.
2. Detailed examination. Before developing a detox program for alcoholism in Moscow, a group of specialists diagnoses the patient’s physical health. The latest medical equipment is used.
3. Insulation. It is prohibited to leave the territory of the center. Only close relatives are allowed to visit.
4. Failure protection. A closed space and the support of doctors help to resist the temptation to drink.
5. Emergency help. If the patient’s well-being sharply deteriorates or chronic diseases worsen, doctors take all necessary resuscitation measures.

A common mistake made by close relatives and alcoholics themselves is to try to cope with the consequences of intoxication on their own. Most often they resort to pharmaceutical drugs and traditional medicine. Such methods are not capable of comprehensively cleansing the body. They only relieve minor symptoms, while dangerous complications continue to progress. The most common consequences of self-medication are:

1. Schizophrenia.
2. Heart attack.
3. Stroke.
4. Pulmonary embolism.
5. Stomach bleeding.
6. Epilepsy attacks.
7. Coma.

Most of these disorders can lead to death for the patient.

Another common method is to lock the alcoholic in a confined space and take away all the alcohol. Such treatment can cause irreparable damage not only to the health of the patient, but also to those around him. Within 2-3 days after a sudden cessation of alcohol consumption, withdrawal syndrome develops. Its main symptom is delirium tremens, which in turn is dangerous due to auditory and visual hallucinations. In this state, an alcoholic can attack relatives and try to commit suicide.

Only detoxification from alcoholism in Ufa, developed and carried out by a qualified narcologist, will help avoid all negative consequences for the patient and his relatives.

First aid

Even mild alcohol poisoning must be treated. Otherwise, toxins can disrupt the normal functioning of internal organs and cause the development of serious pathologies.

You can provide first aid to the victim at home yourself. Its goal should be to reduce the heart rate and remove toxins from the body. The patient is given Cardiamine (1 ml). In severe cases, cardiopulmonary resuscitation is performed.

The general first aid algorithm should be like this:

1. Gastric lavage with plenty of clean water with the addition of potassium permanganate.
2. Taking activated carbon or other absorbents.
3. The use of slightly salted solutions to restore normal water-salt balance in the body.

These actions should alleviate the patient’s condition. If the patient is unconscious or shows signs of severe poisoning, an ambulance must be called before resuscitation begins.

Detoxification drugs

Medicinal herbs

Alternative medicine is rich in recipes that help cleanse the body. Herbs have a positive effect on the functioning of the liver, kidneys, and intestines. The most commonly used plants are:

• chamomile;
• mint;
• nettle;
• dandelion;
• echinacea;
• burdock;
• garlic;
• parsley;
• ginger;
• birch.

But the most effective and efficient medicine is the collection of eleven carefully selected medicinal herbs:

• senna leaves;
• beans;
• bearberry leaves;
• thistle seeds;
• ginger root;
• Dill seeds;
• chamomile flowers;
• mint leaves;
• cinnamon bark;
• buckthorn bark.

The crushed parts of plants must be brewed in a special container overnight. Take one hundred and fifty grams thirty minutes after meals: breakfast, lunch and dinner. The course of treatment is about thirty days. Each of the components of the mixture has its own healing properties and helps to carry out a course of detoxification and improve the health of the body.

Therefore, it is necessary to take some plants to combat worms:

• green shell of walnuts;
• sorrel;
• sagebrush;
• garlic;
• pumpkin seeds;
• carnation;
• turmeric;
• tansy.

An effective alternative medicine against infestations is a solution of milk, turmeric and garlic. Raw pumpkin seeds are also an effective remedy against parasites.

What detoxification is not

Alcoholism is a complex disease that affects all areas of a person’s life. The root cause of addiction is often psychological factors: childhood trauma, stress, crisis situations. Detoxification for alcoholism cannot cure the disease forever. This procedure only eliminates the symptoms caused by intoxication and helps restore health.

Only long-term rehabilitation in a private clinic will help defeat addiction forever. The coordinated work of narcologists and psychotherapists helps not only to restore physical health, but also to solve psychological problems.

State hospitals miss the stage of psychotherapeutic work with the patient, but this is the main stage of getting rid of alcoholism. That is why relapses after such treatment are inevitable.

Superficial cleansing

The whole process begins with cleansing the body of food and alcohol residues. The duration of this stage is short – 3 days.

On the first day, you need to eat only apples, washed down with kefir or low-fat unsweetened yogurt. On this day you need to drink 3 tablets. activated carbon on an empty stomach and 3 pieces in the evening. You need to drink 2 liters of water per day.

The second day will give your stomach a rest, because the diet will consist only of herbal teas (chamomile, lemon balm, hawthorn, rosehip) and water.

The third day is the most “hungry”, so during it you should not leave the house. In the morning you need to drink 2 laxative tablets (choose the one that your body tolerates normally). After this, drink a lot of water all day, and in the evening do an enema with a warm chamomile decoction (1 tbsp per 500 ml of boiling water). After this you can move on to the next phase.

Patient's feelings

Undoubtedly, there will be little pleasure in such a process, and some people can easily tolerate cleansing, while others will find it more difficult. What are the most common symptoms observed during this process?

1. The patient experiences neuroses and cannot calm down for several days.
2. Feelings of anxiety and restlessness may be present.
3. It is quite common to experience insomnia during the first three to four days.
4. There are symptoms similar to hangover syndrome.

1-2 days from the beginning of cleansing are difficult. It is then that the cells begin to adapt to living without alcohol and weaken a little. Sleep disturbances may often occur at this point, but will usually normalize within a month.

There are some rules that must be followed during this process. These include:

1. Taking in huge amounts of liquid. It is advisable to drink at least 3 liters of water per day.
2. Avoid all drinks that contain caffeine. This will include coffee and black tea.
3. It is advisable to switch to drinking fruit juices, which will also help cleanse the body.
4. You need to eat regularly, even if you don’t feel hungry and don’t feel like eating at all.
5. It is advisable to listen to calm music, take a bath, and walk in the fresh air. This will help you get through a rather difficult period of time easier.
