Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - West Bethel, ME.

When someone is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will likely have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be managed in a professional detoxification facility or treatment center so that the client has fully removed all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.

There are a few different types of detox in or near West Bethel that clients can select from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of detox and may require closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone considering detox 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 in some cases, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an accidental overdose, so receiving professional detoxification services and securing access to a strong system of support could actually save your life.

Some programs provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't likely that there might 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 result in harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days on their own and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a natural detoxification.

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