When someone is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will typically feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox may be done in a professional detoxification center or treatment facility so that the client has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and undoubtedly off drugs and no longer drinking.
There are a number of different types of detox in or near Fort Myers that individuals can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of detox and may need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. Either way, 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 the many health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes result in an unexpected overdose, so obtaining professional detoxification services and having access to a robust system of support could actually save the individual's life.
Some programs offer a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't anticipated that there might be any risks or complications based off of the person's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a holistic detoxification.
Medically assisted detox is performed in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription medications. This may be necessary for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will need medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription drugs that individuals get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be desirable among opiate addicted individuals, who would want be given detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
