Detox - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Fontanelle, IA.

When a person is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will typically experience withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox may be performed in a medically supervised detoxification facility or treatment center so that the person has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are mentally and physically stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are various different types of detox in or near Fontanelle that individuals can select from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and may require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Regardless, anyone detoxing or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of the many health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes cause an unexpected overdose, so getting supervised detox services and having access to a robust system of support could literally save the individual's life.

Some facilities provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't likely that there would be any risks or complications based off of the client's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days 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 detox.

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