Detox - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Potomac, IL.

When an individual is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will likely feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be done in a professional detoxification center or treatment facility so that the client has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Potomac that clients can pick from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of critical side effects of detox and likely need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone considering detox or wanting 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 the many health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can commonly cause an unexpected overdose, so obtaining professional detox services and securing access to an extensive system of support could truly save your life.

Some programs provide a holistic and natural 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 some of the more serious physical addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce harsh withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a holistic detoxification.

Medical detox is performed in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription medications. This may be required for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will need medication to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription medications that people develop dependence to. Medical detox may also be favored among opiate addicted individuals, who would prefer to receive detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate medications.
