When an individual is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox may be managed in a medically supervised detoxification center or treatment center so that the client has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from the body 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 Boulder that people can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of detox and may require closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. Either way, anyone considering detox or making the decision to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of some of the medical risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can at times result in an accidental overdose, so receiving supervised detoxification services and gaining access to an extensive system of support could actually save the person's life.
Some facilities provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't anticipated that there might be any risks or health hazards based off of the person's current drug use and current state of health. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, like 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 drugs of any kind through a holistic detox.
Medical detoxification is done in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of medications. This may be required for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription drugs that individuals get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification might also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would want receive detox medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid medications.
