Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Temple Hills, MD.

When someone is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will likely experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox may be done in a professional detoxification facility or treatment center so that the individual has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are mentally and physically balanced, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are various different types of detox in or near Temple Hills that clients can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of unsafe side effects of withdrawal and may need closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. Either way, anyone detoxing or wanting to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of some of the medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly cause an unintended overdose, so obtaining professional detox services and securing access to a strong system of support could literally save the individual's life.

Some programs provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't anticipated that there might be any risks or health hazards based off of the client's current drug use and current state of health. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

Medical detox takes place in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription drugs. This could be necessary for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will require medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with particular prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detox may also be favored among opiate addicted individuals, who would prefer to be administered detox medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid medications.
