Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Alger, MI.

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

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Alger that people can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone considering detox or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of some of the risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can at times cause an accidental overdose, so obtaining supervised detoxification services and securing access to an extensive system of support could truly save the individual's life.

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

Medically assisted detoxification is performed in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription medications. This may be necessary for someone who is battling alcoholism and will need medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with particular prescription drugs that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be favored among opiate addicted clients, who would rather be given detox medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid drugs.
