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

When an individual is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will typically experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox can be performed in a medically supervised detoxification center or rehab facility so that the person has fully removed all of the drugs from their system and they are mentally and physically stable, and undoubtedly off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are various different types of detox in or near Sterling that individuals can pick from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of detox and may require closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone detoxing or making the decision 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 risks associated in some cases, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly cause an unintended overdose, so getting professional detox services and securing access to a strong system of support could truly save the individual's life.

Some facilities offer a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't expected that there will 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 produce extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be accomplished without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

Medical detoxification takes place in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription medications. This may be required for someone who is battling alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medical detoxification may also be preferred among opiate addicted individuals, who would prefer to receive detox medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid drugs.
