Detox - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Harrisville, RI.

When an individual is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will likely feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox can be managed in a medically supervised detoxification facility or rehab facility so that the individual has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are various different types of detox in or near Harrisville that individuals can pick from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone detoxing or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so at a qualified facility and not on their own. This is because of some of the risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly result in an unintended overdose, so obtaining supervised detox services and gaining access to a strong system of support could literally save your life.

Some facilities offer a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there will be any risks or complications based off of the client's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present extreme withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be done without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.

Medical detox is done in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription drugs. This may be necessary for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription medications that individuals develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox may also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would prefer to receive medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate medications.
