Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Algona, IA.

When an individual is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will typically have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox may be done in a medically supervised detox facility or rehab center so that the individual has eliminated all of the drugs from their system and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Algona that people can pick from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and likely require closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. Regardless, anyone detoxing or wanting to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so at a qualified facility and not on their own. This is because of the many medical risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes result in an accidental overdose, so obtaining supervised detoxification services and having access to a robust system of support could literally save the person's life.

Some facilities offer a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there might be any risks or complications based off of the client's current drug use and current state of health. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in extreme withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be done without medications of any kind through a holistic detoxification.

Medically assisted detoxification is performed in an inpatient facility with the use of medications. This could be necessary for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will require medication to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be preferred among opiate addicted individuals, who would rather receive detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
