Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Newark, IL.

When someone is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will typically have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox may be done in a medically supervised detoxification center or treatment center 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 alcohol.

There are various different types of detox in or near Newark that clients can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. Either way, anyone detoxing or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of some of the risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an accidental overdose, so receiving professional detoxification services and having access to an extensive system of support could truly save the individual's life.

Some facilities provide a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't expected that there would be any risks or complications based off of the individual's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a natural detox.

Medically assisted detoxification is done in an inpatient setting with the use of medications. This might be required for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that individuals develop dependence to. Medical detoxification may also be preferred among opiate addicted individuals, who would rather be administered medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate medications.
