Detox - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - St. Donatus, IA.

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

There are a few different types of detox in or near St. Donatus that individuals can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of unsafe side effects of detox and may require closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone detoxing or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so at a qualified facility and not at home on their own. This is because of the many risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes result in an unexpected overdose, so getting supervised detox services and having access to an extensive system of support could actually save the person's life.

Some programs offer a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the client's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

Medically assisted detox is performed in an inpatient facility with the use of medications. This may be required for an individual who is struggling with alcoholism and will need medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medical detoxification might also be desirable among opiate addicted clients, who would rather be administered detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate drugs.
