Detox - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Atlantic, IA.

When a person is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be performed in a professional detox center or treatment facility so that the client 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 Atlantic that people can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. Regardless, anyone considering detox or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so at a qualified facility and not at home on their own. This is because of some of the health risks associated in some cases, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes result in an unexpected overdose, so receiving supervised detoxification services and having access to an extensive system of support could truly save your life.

Some facilities provide a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't anticipated that there would 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 first couple days of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.

Medically assisted detoxification is performed in an inpatient setting with the use of medications. This may be required for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will need medication to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that individuals develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox may also be favored among opiate addicted clients, who would want be given detox medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
