When an individual is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will typically have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox may be done in a professional detox center or treatment center so that the person has fully removed the drugs from the body and they are physically and mentally balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.
There are a number of different types of detox in or near El Cajon that people can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of detox and may require closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. 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 in some cases, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly result in an accidental overdose, so receiving professional detox services and gaining access to a strong system of support could literally save the person's life.
Some facilities offer a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't likely that there will 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 result in extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms steadily decrease 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 done in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription medications. This could be required for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will need medication to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription medications that individuals develop dependence to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be favored among opiate addicted individuals, who would rather be given medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate medications.
