When an individual is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox may be managed in a medically supervised detoxification center or rehab center so that the person has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and undoubtedly off drugs and no longer drinking.
There are various different types of detox in or near St. Paul that people can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and may require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone detoxing or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of some of the medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes result in an unexpected overdose, so obtaining supervised detox services and gaining access to a robust system of support could truly save your life.
Some facilities provide a holistic and natural detoxification, 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 some of the more serious physical addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present extreme 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 detox.
Medical detoxification is performed in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription medications. This could be necessary for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medical detoxification may also be desirable among opiate addicted clients, who would want receive detox medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
