Is it possible to cure alcoholism "at home"?

11 Dec, 2023, No comments

Alcoholism is a disease that causes very unpleasant moments both for the person who cannot limit the consumption of alcohol, and for those closest to him. We often hear about various folk methods that supposedly help cope with alcoholism, but do they really work? We will find out this in the continuation of the article.

Self-medication for alcoholism is not only ineffective, but also dangerous

From what people call the hangover the morning after drinking too much to trying not to drink a drop, the ways in which people try to cope with the unpleasant effects of drinking are varied. Although some of them (for example, the use of various drugs) may seem effective in the short term, such an approach can pose a danger not only to health, but even to life.

What are the risks associated with different types of alcoholism treatment without professional help?

Firstly, when treating alcoholism at home with drugs that can be bought in pharmacies or other places, there is a risk of unexpected reactions of the body and serious complications. Therefore, you should forget about this approach without consulting a professional doctor. Secondly, if alcoholism treatment is carried out by calling a narcologist to your home, there is no guarantee that the person’s condition will not worsen after the specialist leaves. One of the risks is, for example, an attack of arrhythmia, since a cardiogram is usually not performed during a home visit. On the other hand, bleeding may begin after the system.

Thirdly, sometimes we hear about cases when close people, wishing well, mix various herbal mixtures, mixtures, tinctures and decoctions into the drink or food of a person with alcoholism. This approach also carries serious risks, especially if the person has diabetes, hepatitis, stomach ulcers, hypertension or other diseases. Fourthly, an attempt to stop the so-called spree with the help of sleeping pills or tranquilizers can end fatally, with death during sleep, and sleeping pills increase the craving for alcohol.

The only right decision for alcoholism is to seek professional help.

It's no secret that alcoholism is a very complex and insidious disease, so treatment of alcoholism requires close attention and a professional approach to each individual case. Visiting a specialized medical institution - a hospital - has a number of important advantages that provide effective treatment, and sometimes can even save lives:

In a hospital, you can very accurately determine the current state of a person’s health, as well as identify contraindications after using medications and prevent complications caused by them, if any;

During treatment, the patient is constantly under the supervision of professional medical personnel who monitor the progress of treatment;

It is more difficult for the patient to break free and start drinking because alcohol is not available.

It should be understood that alcoholism is not only a physical, but also a psychological addiction, therefore, to achieve the most effective results, treatment of alcoholism should be carried out not only with the help of medications, but also with a visit to a psychotherapist.

All of the above benefits are offered by the Lasa Med medical center, where professional help and treatment for alcoholism are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Lasa Med offers outpatient treatment, drug and alcohol addiction treatment, house calls, and other services to help overcome addiction. Find out more by visiting the medical center’s website, calling the mobile phone (+371 29586640, +371 29164909) and 24-hour phone number +371 27717023, or sending an email to [email protected]!
