When a person is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will likely have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be done in a medically supervised detoxification facility or treatment center so that the individual has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.
There are a number of different types of detox in or near Aiken that individuals can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of unsafe side effects of withdrawal 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 with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of the many medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes result in an accidental overdose, so receiving professional detoxification services and gaining access to an extensive system of support could truly save your life.
Some facilities offer a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't expected 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 result in harsh withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.
Medically assisted detox takes place in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription medications. This might be required for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription drugs that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detoxification might also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would rather receive medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid drugs.
