When someone is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will typically experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be managed in a medically supervised detoxification center or treatment facility so that the person has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and alcohol.
There are a few different types of detox in or near Greensboro that clients can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and may need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone detoxing or wanting to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so at a qualified facility and not on their own. This is because of some of the risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an unintended overdose, so receiving supervised detoxification services and securing access to a robust system of support could actually save the person's life.
Some facilities provide a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or complications based off of the person's current drug use and current state of health. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days on their own and can be done without medications of any kind through a holistic detoxification.
Medically assisted detoxification is performed in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription medications. This may be necessary for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will need medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with particular prescription medications that people develop dependence to. Medical detoxification might also be favored among opioid dependent individuals, who would rather be administered detox medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate drugs.
