Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Kiahsville, WV.

When someone is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox can be performed in a medically supervised detox facility or rehab facility so that the person has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Kiahsville that individuals can pick from. Different substances bring about 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 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 the many health risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly result in an unexpected overdose, so receiving supervised detoxification services and securing access to a robust system of support could truly save the individual's life.

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

Medically assisted detoxification is done in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription drugs. This could be required for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that people develop dependence to. Medical detox may also be preferred among opiate addicted individuals, who would rather receive detox medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid drugs.
