Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Granite Quarry, NC.

When a person is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will likely have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox may be done in a professional detoxification center or treatment facility so that the person has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from the body 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 Granite Quarry that clients can select from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and may need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. Regardless, anyone detoxing or wanting to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so at a qualified facility and not at home on their own. This is because of some of the medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can at times cause an unintended overdose, so getting supervised detox services and having access to a robust system of support could truly save the individual's life.

Some programs provide a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't likely that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the individual's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be done without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

Medically assisted detoxification is done in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This may be necessary for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will require 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. Medical detoxification may also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would prefer to be given detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid medications.
