When a person is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will typically experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox can be managed in a professional detoxification facility or treatment facility so that the client has fully removed the drugs from their system and they are mentally and physically balanced, and of course off drugs and alcohol.
There are various different types of detox in or near Lancaster 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 with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of the many risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can at times cause an unexpected overdose, so receiving professional detox services and having access to an extensive 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 might be any risks or complications based off of the individual's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.
Medically assisted detox is performed in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This could 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 some specific prescription medications that individuals develop dependence to. Medical detoxification may also be preferred among opioid dependent individuals, who would want be administered medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid medications.
