Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Plainville, CT.

When an individual is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will typically experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be done in a medically supervised detoxification facility or treatment facility so that the person has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are physically and mentally balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are various different types of detox in or near Plainville that clients can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of withdrawal and may need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone detoxing or wanting to quit heavy drug or alcohol use 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 risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an unexpected overdose, so obtaining supervised detox services and gaining access to a strong system of support could truly save the person's life.

Some facilities offer a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or complications 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 produce severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days on their own and can be done without medications of any kind through a holistic detox.

Medical detoxification takes place in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This could be required for an individual who is struggling with alcoholism and will need medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be favored among opiate addicted clients, who would prefer to be administered medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
