Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - West Salisbury, PA.

When someone is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will typically feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox can be done in a professional detoxification facility 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 no longer drinking.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near West Salisbury that clients can pick from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone detoxing or making the decision 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 health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times cause an accidental overdose, so receiving supervised detoxification services and having access to a robust system of support could literally save the person's life.

Some facilities provide a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't likely that there would be any risks or health hazards based off of the individual's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce 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 drugs of any kind through a natural detoxification.

Medical detox is done in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This might be necessary for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will require medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medical detox may also be favored among opiate addicted clients, who would prefer to be administered medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid medications.
