Detoxification
is the gradual withdrawal of an abused substance in a controlled environment.
Sometimes a drug with a similar action is taken instead, to reduce the side effects
and risks of withdrawal. Detoxification can be done on an inpatient or outpatient
basis.
For narcotic dependence, some people are treated with methadone
or similar drugs to prevent withdrawal and abuse. The goal is to enable the person
to live as normal a life as possible.
