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

When someone is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox may be performed in a professional detoxification center or treatment facility so that the individual has eliminated the drugs from the body and they are mentally and physically balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Waukegan that people can pick from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and may need closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. Regardless, anyone detoxing or making the decision to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of some of the medical risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it lowers the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly result in an unintended overdose, so getting professional detoxification services and having access to an extensive system of support could actually save the individual's life.

Some facilities offer a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't likely that there will be any risks or complications based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based 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 without much intervention and can be accomplished without medications of any kind through a natural detox.

Medically assisted detox is performed in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription drugs. This may be necessary 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 particular prescription medications that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox might also be preferred among opiate addicted individuals, who would prefer to be given medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
