Detox - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Parma Heights, OH.

When an individual is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will typically experience withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox may be done in a professional detox center or treatment facility so that the client has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Parma Heights that people can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of detox and may need closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone detoxing or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of the many health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an unexpected overdose, so obtaining supervised detoxification services and gaining access to a strong system of support could truly save the person's life.

Some programs provide a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there will be any risks or health hazards 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 result in harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days on their own and can be done without medications of any kind through a holistic detox.

Medical detoxification is done in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription medications. This could be required for someone who is battling alcoholism and will need medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detoxification might also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would prefer to be administered medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid drugs.
