When a person is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will likely experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be performed in a professional detox facility or rehab center so that the client has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are mentally and physically balanced, and of course off drugs and alcohol.
There are various different types of detox in or near Las Vegas that individuals can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of detox and likely need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone considering detox 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 the many medical risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly cause an unexpected overdose, so obtaining supervised detoxification services and securing access to an extensive system of support could actually save your life.
Some programs provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't likely that there would 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, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a holistic detoxification.
Medically assisted detox is done in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription drugs. This could be necessary for an individual who is struggling with alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with particular prescription drugs that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would rather be given medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate medications.
