When someone is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will likely have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox may be done in a professional detoxification facility or treatment center so that the person has fully removed all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.
There are a few different types of detox in or near Miami that clients can pick from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of harmful side effects of detox and likely need closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone considering detox or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so at a qualified facility and not on their own. This is because of some of the medical risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes result in an unintended overdose, so getting professional detox services and having access to an extensive system of support could truly save the individual's life.
Some programs offer a holistic and natural detox, 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 severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce extreme withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a natural detox.
Medical detoxification is performed in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of medications. This could be necessary for someone who is battling alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with particular prescription drugs that individuals get addicted to. Medical detoxification might also be favored among opioid dependent individuals, who would prefer to be administered medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
