When an individual is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will typically have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be done in a professional detoxification center or treatment facility so that the person has fully removed all of the drugs from their system and they are mentally and physically balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.
There are a number of different types of detox in or near Prescott that people can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of harmful side effects of detox and likely require closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone detoxing or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of some of the health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes cause an accidental overdose, so getting professional detox services and having access to a strong system of support could actually save the individual's life.
Some programs offer a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't likely that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a natural detox.
Medically assisted detoxification takes place in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This may be necessary for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox may also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would rather be given detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid medications.
