Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Ridgway, CO.

When an individual is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox can be managed in a professional detoxification center or treatment center so that the person has fully removed the drugs from their system and they are mentally and physically stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Ridgway that individuals can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and may require closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. Regardless, anyone considering detox 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 medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times cause an unexpected overdose, so receiving supervised detox services and having access to a robust system of support could literally save the individual's life.

Some programs offer a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the client'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 harsh withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a natural detoxification.

Medically assisted detoxification is performed in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription drugs. This may be required for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will require medication to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medical detox might also be favored among opiate addicted clients, who would prefer to be given medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid medications.
