Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Woolford, MD.

When a person is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will likely experience withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox can be performed in a medically supervised detox facility or rehab facility so that the individual has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are mentally and physically balanced, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are various different types of detox in or near Woolford that clients can pick from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of unsafe side effects of withdrawal and may require closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. Either way, anyone considering detox 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 some of the medical risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly result in an accidental overdose, so receiving supervised detox services and securing access to a strong system of support could literally save the person's life.

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

Medically assisted detox is performed in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This could be necessary for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medical detoxification might also be preferred among opiate addicted individuals, who would prefer to be administered detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid drugs.
