Detox - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Lake, MI.

When someone is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox may be done in a professional detoxification facility or rehab facility so that the person 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 alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Lake that clients can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone considering detox or wanting to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so at a qualified facility and not on their own. This is because of some of the medical risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can commonly result in an unexpected overdose, so getting supervised detox services and gaining access to a strong system of support could truly save the person's life.

Some facilities provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't likely that there might be any risks or complications based off of the client's current drug use and current state of health. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days on their own and can be done without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

Medically assisted detox is performed in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This might be necessary for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will need medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medical detoxification might also be preferred among opiate addicted individuals, who would want receive detox medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate medications.
