Detox - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Isle St. George, OH.

When an individual is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will typically experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be managed in a medically supervised detoxification facility or rehab facility so that the person has eliminated all of the drugs from their system 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 Isle St. George that clients can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and likely require 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 decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes cause an accidental overdose, so receiving supervised detoxification services and securing access to a robust system of support could literally save the individual's life.

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

Medically assisted detoxification takes place in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This might be required for someone who is battling alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription drugs that people get addicted to. Medical detox may also be favored among opiate addicted clients, who would rather be given medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate medications.
