When a person is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will likely feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox can be done in a professional detox center or treatment center so that the client has fully removed all of the drugs from their system and they are mentally and physically stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.
There are a few different types of detox in or near Tuscaloosa that people can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Regardless, anyone detoxing or making the decision to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so at a qualified facility and not at home on their own. This is because of the many risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes result in an accidental overdose, so getting professional detoxification services and securing access to a robust system of support could literally save the person's life.
Some programs offer a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't anticipated that there might be any risks or complications based off of the person's current drug use and current state of health. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a natural detoxification.
Medically assisted detoxification is done in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of medications. This might be required for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medically assisted detox might also be favored among opiate addicted individuals, who would want be administered detox medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate drugs.
