Alcohol de-addiction treatment in Kollam

Stopping alcohol after months or years of heavy drinking is not only a matter of willpower. The body has adapted to alcohol, and stopping suddenly can bring shaking, sweating, sleeplessness and, in some people, fits or confusion. Treatment here starts with making that first stage safe, then helps the person stay stopped.
