Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Bath, PA.

When an individual is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox can be performed in a medically supervised detoxification center or rehab facility so that the individual has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are various different types of detox in or near Bath that people can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of unsafe side effects of detox and may need closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. Either way, 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 the many risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times result in an accidental overdose, so obtaining professional detox services and gaining access to an extensive system of support could truly save the person's life.

Some programs offer a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't likely that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the individual's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days without much intervention and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.

Medical detox is performed in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription medications. This could be required for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with particular prescription drugs that individuals develop dependence to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be favored among opiate addicted individuals, who would rather be administered detox medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid medications.
