Detox - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - St. Olaf, IA.

When someone is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will likely feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox may be done in a medically supervised detoxification center or treatment center so that the person has fully removed all of the drugs from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and undoubtedly off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near St. Olaf that clients can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and may require closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone considering detox 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 health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can at times result in an unintended overdose, so getting professional detoxification services and securing access to a strong system of support could literally save your life.

Some programs offer a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't likely that there might be any risks or health hazards based off of the individual'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 natural, holistic detoxification.

Medically assisted detoxification takes place in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription drugs. This could be required for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with particular prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medical detox might also be favored among opiate addicted individuals, who would want receive detox medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
