Detox - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - West Ridge, AR.

When an individual is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox can be done in a medically supervised detox center or rehab center so that the person has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are various different types of detox in or near West Ridge that individuals can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and may require closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. Regardless, anyone detoxing or wanting to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of the many health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can at times result in an unexpected overdose, so receiving supervised detox services and gaining access to an extensive system of support could actually save your life.

Some programs provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't expected that there would 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, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be done without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

Medically assisted detoxification is done in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This might be necessary for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with particular prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be preferred among opiate addicted clients, who would want receive detox medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate drugs.
