Detox - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - New Brighton, PA.

When someone is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will likely feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox can be performed in a professional detoxification center or rehab facility so that the individual has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near New Brighton that people can select from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and may need closer medical supervision 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 the many risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an unexpected overdose, so getting professional detox services and gaining access to a strong system of support could literally save your life.

Some facilities offer a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the person's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present extreme withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a holistic detoxification.

Medical detox takes place in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription medications. This might be required for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medical detox may also be preferred among opioid dependent clients, who would prefer to be administered medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
