Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - O Fallon, IL.

When someone is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be done in a professional detoxification center or rehab facility so that the client has fully removed all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically balanced, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near O Fallon that people can select from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and may need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. 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 the many health risks associated in some cases, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly result in an unintended overdose, so getting professional detoxification services and having access to a strong system of support could actually save the person's life.

Some facilities provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't anticipated that there might be any risks or complications based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce harsh withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be done without drugs of any kind through a natural detox.

Medical detox takes place in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of medications. This might be required for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that individuals get addicted to. Medical detoxification may also be preferred among opioid dependent clients, who would want be administered medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
