Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - South Range, MI.

When a person is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will typically experience withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox can be done in a medically supervised detoxification facility or rehab facility so that the person has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a few different types of detox in or near South Range 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 likely require closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. Regardless, anyone detoxing or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of some of the risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an accidental overdose, so receiving supervised detoxification services and gaining access to a robust system of support could literally save your life.

Some programs provide a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't expected that there might be any risks or health hazards based off of the client's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.

Medically assisted detoxification is performed in an inpatient setting with the use of medications. This may be required for someone 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 drugs that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be favored among opiate addicted individuals, who would rather be administered detox medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
