Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Seal Cove, ME.

When an individual is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will likely experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox may be done in a medically supervised detox facility or rehab center so that the individual has fully removed all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are mentally and physically stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Seal Cove that individuals can select from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone detoxing or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so at a qualified facility and not on their own. This is because of some of the risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes cause an unexpected overdose, so getting supervised detox services and securing access to a strong system of support could actually save your life.

Some facilities provide a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't likely that there might be any risks or health hazards based off of the client's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce harsh withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be done without drugs of any kind through a natural detoxification.

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