Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Ellsworth, OH.

When someone is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will likely experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox may be managed in a medically supervised detox center or rehab center so that the client has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Ellsworth that individuals can select from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some 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 making the decision to get off of drugs or stop drinking 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 risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes result in an unexpected overdose, so getting professional detox services and having access to an extensive system of support could actually save the person's life.

Some programs provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't likely that there will be any risks or complications 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 severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a holistic detoxification.

Medical detox takes place in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription medications. This might be required for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will need medication to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that individuals get addicted to. Medical detox may also be preferred among opiate addicted clients, who would rather receive medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
