When a person is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be performed in a medically supervised detoxification center or treatment facility so that the client has fully removed all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.
There are a number of different types of detox in or near Sacramento that people can select from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of detox and likely need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone detoxing or wanting 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 risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an unexpected overdose, so receiving professional detoxification services and securing access to an extensive system of support could literally save your life.
Some programs provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't likely that there might be any risks or health hazards based off of the person'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 harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days on their own and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a holistic detox.
Medically assisted detoxification takes place in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription drugs. This might be required for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will require medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be preferred among opioid dependent individuals, who would prefer to receive medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate drugs.
