Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Lewis Center, OH.

When an individual is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will experience withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be performed in a professional detoxification center or treatment center so that the person has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Lewis Center that individuals can select from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of critical side effects of detox and likely require closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. Either way, anyone considering detox or wanting 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 health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes cause an accidental overdose, so getting professional detoxification services and having access to an extensive system of support could truly save the person's life.

Some programs offer a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't likely that there would be any risks or health hazards based off of the client's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

Medically assisted detox is performed in an inpatient setting with the use of medications. This could be required for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with particular prescription medications that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox may also be desirable among opiate addicted clients, who would rather be administered medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate medications.
