When a person is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will likely have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox can be done in a professional detox facility or rehab center so that the individual has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are mentally and physically stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.
There are a few different types of detox in or near Richmond that individuals can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of unsafe side effects of detox and may need closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone considering detox 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 in some cases, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can commonly result in an accidental overdose, so obtaining professional detox services and gaining access to an extensive system of support could literally save the individual's life.
Some facilities offer a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't likely that there would be any risks or health hazards 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 result in extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days without much intervention and can be accomplished without medications of any kind through a natural detox.
Medically assisted detox is done in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription drugs. This might be required for someone who is battling alcoholism and will need medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification might also be preferred among opiate addicted clients, who would prefer to receive medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate drugs.
