    Опытные специалисты знают, что запой может развиваться по-разному. У одного человека симптомы появляются уже на второй день, у другого тяжелый абстинентный синдром формируется после недели употребления. Поэтому наркологи не используют один и тот же метод для всех. Наркологу важно увидеть пациента, задать вопросы, оценить общее здоровье и понять, можно ли вывести человека из запоя дома или лучше сразу направить его в клинику.
