Detox - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Turner, ME.

When a person is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox may be performed in a professional detox facility or treatment facility so that the individual has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Turner that clients can pick from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and may need 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 risks associated in some cases, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can commonly result in an unintended overdose, so obtaining professional detoxification services and having access to an extensive system of support could truly save the person's life.

Some facilities offer a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't expected that there might be any risks or complications based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a natural detoxification.

Medically assisted detoxification takes place in an inpatient facility with the use of medications. This might be required for someone 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 medications that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be desirable among opiate addicted clients, who would want be administered detox medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid medications.
