Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Ponte Vedra Beach, FL.

When an individual is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will typically feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be managed in a professional detox facility or treatment center so that the client has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically balanced, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are various different types of detox in or near Ponte Vedra Beach that people can pick from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and may need closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone considering detox or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of some of the health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can commonly result in an accidental overdose, so obtaining professional detoxification services and gaining access to a robust system of support could actually 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 complications based off of the client's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days on their own and can be done without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

Medically assisted detoxification is done in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This might be necessary for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription drugs that individuals develop dependence to. Medical detoxification might also be preferred among opiate addicted clients, who would rather be given detox medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate medications.
