How the request works
The first contact does not oblige you to start treatment. You can briefly describe the situation, ask questions and get guidance about the safe next step.
If there are acute symptoms, loss of consciousness, seizures, chest pain, difficulty breathing, severe hallucinations or a suspected overdose, you need to call emergency medical help.
Questions and answers
Can I contact you confidentially?
Yes. Demeevka does not disclose the fact that you contacted us and handles personal data carefully.
Can relatives start with a consultation?
Yes. Often relatives take the first step, to understand the risks, how to approach the conversation, and the safe next steps.
Can I choose a specific treatment method right away?
The final form of help is decided only after assessing the condition, symptoms, risks and contraindications.
What should I prepare for the first contact?
It helps to briefly describe the symptoms, how long the use lasted, the current condition, chronic illnesses, and which medications have already been taken.
