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

When someone is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will likely experience withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox can be done in a medically supervised detoxification facility or treatment facility so that the person has fully removed all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Chesterfield that clients can pick from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of unsafe side effects of detox and may require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone detoxing or wanting 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 in some cases, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes cause an unexpected overdose, so getting professional detox services and having access to a strong system of support could truly save the individual's life.

Some programs provide a holistic and natural detoxification, 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 severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present harsh withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

Medical detox is done in an inpatient facility with the use of medications. This may be necessary for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will need medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medical detoxification may also be preferred among opioid dependent clients, who would want be given medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate medications.
