Detoxification

Methods that neutralize and washout psychoactive substances (drugs, alcohol) and their metabolites from the body.

There are two methods of drug detox:

• Chemical – introduction of antagonists. Procedure lasts 3 – 4 days

• UROD – forced rapid reduction of withdrawal syndrome during several hours. A person under anesthesia is given high doses of antagonists. All the neuro-receptors are switched off so that the person doesn’t feel any pain.
