Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Jefferson, CO.

When someone is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will likely have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox may be done in a professional detox facility or treatment center so that the individual has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Jefferson that clients can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of unsafe side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer medical supervision 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 the many medical risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes 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 programs offer a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't expected that there will 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, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without medications of any kind through a holistic detoxification.

Medical detox is done in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of medications. This might be required for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will require medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with particular prescription medications that individuals develop dependence to. Medical detoxification might also be favored among opioid dependent individuals, who would want receive medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
