Detox - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - New London, IA.

When an individual is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will likely have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be performed in a medically supervised detoxification center or treatment center so that the individual has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are physically and mentally stable, and undoubtedly off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are various different types of detox in or near New London that individuals can select from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of unsafe side effects of detox and may require closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. Regardless, anyone detoxing or making the decision to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of the many risks associated in some cases, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an accidental overdose, so getting professional detox services and having access to an extensive system of support could literally save the individual's life.

Some programs provide a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't likely that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce harsh withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a holistic detoxification.

Medically assisted detox takes place in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription medications. This might be required for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with particular prescription drugs that people develop dependence to. Medical detoxification may also be preferred among opiate addicted clients, who would want be administered detox medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate medications.
