Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Martensdale, IA.

When someone is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will typically feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox may be managed in a professional detoxification facility or rehab center so that the person has fully removed all of the drugs from their system and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Martensdale that clients can select from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and may require closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. Regardless, anyone considering detox 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 in some cases, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes result in an unexpected overdose, so obtaining supervised detoxification services and gaining access to a strong system of support could truly save the individual's life.

Some facilities offer a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or complications based off of the individual's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a holistic detoxification.

Medically assisted detoxification is done in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription drugs. This may be necessary for someone who is battling alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription medications that individuals develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox may also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would rather be given medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
