Detox - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Argenta, IL.

When a person is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox may be managed in a professional detox facility or rehab center so that the individual has fully removed all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are mentally and physically stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Argenta that individuals can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and may need 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 some of the risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes result in an unexpected overdose, so obtaining professional detox services and having access to a strong system of support could literally save your life.

Some programs provide a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't anticipated that there would be any risks or complications 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 present extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days without much intervention and can be done without medications of any kind through a natural detox.

Medically assisted detoxification is performed in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This could be required for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will require medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with particular prescription medications that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detoxification might also be desirable among opiate addicted clients, who would rather be given medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
