When a person is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will likely feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox can be managed in a professional detoxification center or rehab center so that the client has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and alcohol.
There are a few different types of detox in or near Flint that clients can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of harmful side effects of withdrawal and may require closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone detoxing 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 the many medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes cause an accidental overdose, so obtaining professional detoxification services and having access to a robust system of support could actually save the person's life.
Some programs offer a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or complications based off of the person's current drug use and current state of health. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce severe 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 detox.
Medically assisted detoxification is done in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription drugs. This may be necessary for someone who is battling alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that individuals develop dependence to. Medically assisted detoxification might also be favored among opioid dependent individuals, who would prefer to be administered medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid drugs.
