Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Gainesville, GA.

When a person is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will likely feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox may be done in a professional detoxification center or treatment facility so that the client has fully removed all of the drugs from the body and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are various different types of detox in or near Gainesville that clients can select from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and may need closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. Regardless, anyone detoxing 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 the many health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly result in an unexpected overdose, so receiving professional detox services and securing access to a strong system of support could truly save the individual's life.

Some programs provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't expected that there might be any risks or complications based off of the individual's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present harsh withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a natural detoxification.

Medically assisted detoxification takes place in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription medications. This may be necessary for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification might also be preferred among opioid dependent individuals, who would want be administered detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
