Detox - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Marengo, OH.

When someone is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will likely experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox may be done in a medically supervised detox center or treatment facility so that the individual has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are mentally and physically balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Marengo that clients can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of detox and may need closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. Either way, 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 risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times result in an unexpected overdose, so obtaining supervised detoxification services and having access to a strong system of support could actually save your life.

Some facilities provide a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't likely that there would be any risks or complications based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce extreme withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.

Medically assisted detox is performed in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of medications. This may be necessary for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription medications that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be preferred among opiate addicted individuals, who would prefer to be administered detox medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
