Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Greenville, IL.

When someone is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will typically feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox may be done in a professional detox center or rehab center so that the individual has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are various different types of detox in or near Greenville that individuals can pick from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of unsafe side effects of withdrawal and likely 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 on their own. This is because of some of the health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly cause an accidental overdose, so getting professional detox services and having access to a strong system of support could truly save your life.

Some facilities offer a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't expected that there would be any risks or complications based off of the person's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in harsh withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days on their own and can be done without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.

Medical detoxification is done in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This may be necessary for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will require medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that individuals get addicted to. Medically assisted detox may also be preferred among opioid dependent individuals, who would prefer to be administered detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid medications.
