Detox - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Red Rock, OK.

When a person is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will typically have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox may be performed in a medically supervised detox facility or treatment center so that the client has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically balanced, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Red Rock that people can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and may require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone detoxing or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so at a qualified facility and not on their own. This is because of some of the health risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an unexpected overdose, so receiving supervised detoxification services and securing access to a robust system of support could actually save your life.

Some programs provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't likely that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the client's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a natural detox.

Medical detoxification takes place in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription medications. This may be necessary for someone who is battling alcoholism and will require medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that people get addicted to. Medical detoxification may also be preferred among opiate addicted clients, who would rather be given detox medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid medications.
