Detox - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Boody, IL.

When a person is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will likely have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox may be done in a medically supervised detox facility or treatment facility so that the individual has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically balanced, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Boody that clients can pick from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of unsafe side effects of detox and likely need closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone detoxing or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of the many risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly result in an accidental overdose, so getting professional detox services and securing access to a robust system of support could actually save your life.

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

Medically assisted detox takes place in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This could be necessary for someone who is battling alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription medications that individuals develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox may also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would want be given medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
