Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Prince Frederick, MD.

When a person is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will likely experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be done in a professional detox facility or rehab center so that the individual has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are physically and mentally balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Prince Frederick that people can pick from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone detoxing or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of the many medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes result in an unintended overdose, so receiving professional detox services and securing access to a robust system of support could actually save your life.

Some programs offer a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the person's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.

Medical detoxification is performed in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription drugs. This might be required for someone 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 some specific prescription drugs that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox may also be desirable among opiate addicted individuals, who would prefer to be given medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid drugs.
