Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Sinclair, ME.

When a person is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be managed in a medically supervised detox center or treatment facility so that the person has fully removed all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically balanced, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are various different types of detox in or near Sinclair that people can pick from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and may need closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. Either way, anyone considering detox or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so at a qualified facility and not at home on their own. This is because of some of the risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly result in an unintended overdose, so receiving professional detox services and securing access to a strong system of support could literally save the person's life.

Some programs provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't likely that there will be any risks or complications based off of the client's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a holistic detoxification.

Medical detox is done in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This may be necessary for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that individuals develop dependence to. Medically assisted detoxification might also be favored among opioid dependent clients, who would prefer to be given detox medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
