Detox - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Bartow, GA.

When an individual is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will likely have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be done in a professional detoxification facility or rehab facility so that the person has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Bartow that people can select from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of unsafe side effects of withdrawal and may need closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone detoxing or making the decision to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of some of the health risks associated in some cases, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can at times result in an unintended overdose, so obtaining professional detox services and securing access to a strong system of support could actually save the individual's life.

Some facilities offer a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't anticipated that there might be any risks or complications based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a natural detox.

Medical detoxification takes place in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription medications. This may be necessary for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will need medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that individuals develop dependence to. Medical detox might also be desirable among opiate addicted individuals, who would prefer to be given medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid medications.
