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

When a person is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox can 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 mentally and physically balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.

There are various different types of detox in or near Rake that clients can pick from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of unsafe side effects of detox and likely require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone detoxing or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of some of the medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes cause an unintended overdose, so getting supervised detoxification services and securing access to a strong system of support could actually save your life.

Some facilities provide a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't expected that there might be any risks or complications based off of the client's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce 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 drugs of any kind through a holistic detox.

Medically assisted detoxification is done in an inpatient setting with the use of medications. This may be necessary for someone who is battling alcoholism and will need medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with particular prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medical detoxification might also be favored among opiate addicted clients, who would rather receive medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid drugs.
