Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Dahlonega, GA.

When a person is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will typically feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be managed in a professional detoxification center or treatment facility so that the individual has fully removed the drugs from the body and they are mentally and physically stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Dahlonega that clients can select from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone considering detox or making the decision 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 in some cases, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an accidental overdose, so getting professional detoxification services and gaining access to a robust system of support could truly save the person's life.

Some programs provide a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't likely 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, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be done without medications of any kind through a natural detox.

Medically assisted detoxification takes place in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This could be required for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will require medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medical detoxification may also be favored among opiate addicted individuals, who would rather be given detox medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate medications.
