When a person is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will likely feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be done in a professional detoxification center or treatment facility so that the individual has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are mentally and physically balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and no longer drinking.
There are various different types of detox in or near Orlando that individuals can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone detoxing or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of the many medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times result in an accidental overdose, so receiving professional detoxification services and having access to a robust system of support could truly save the person's life.
Some facilities provide 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 health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days without much intervention and can be done without drugs of any kind through a holistic detox.
Medically assisted detoxification is performed in an inpatient setting with the use of medications. This might be necessary for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will need medication to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription drugs that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detox may also be desirable among opiate addicted individuals, who would prefer to receive detox medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate drugs.
