Detox - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Sunnyvale, CA.

When someone is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will likely feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be performed in a medically supervised detoxification facility or rehab facility so that the individual has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol 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 Sunnyvale that people can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. Regardless, anyone considering detox or making the decision to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so at a qualified facility and not at home on their own. This is because of the many risks associated in some cases, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes result in an unintended overdose, so obtaining supervised detox services and having access to an extensive system of support could literally save the individual's life.

Some programs provide a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't likely that there will 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 severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be done without drugs of any kind through a natural detoxification.

Medical detox is performed in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription medications. This may be required for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that individuals get addicted to. Medical detox might also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would prefer to be given detox medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
