Detox - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Kempton, IN.

When someone is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will typically experience withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox may be done in a medically supervised detoxification center or treatment center so that the individual 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 Kempton that individuals can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. 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 at home on their own. This is because of some of the health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times cause an accidental overdose, so receiving supervised detox services and securing access to an extensive system of support could actually save the individual's life.

Some programs provide a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't expected that there would be any risks or health hazards based off of the individual's current health and drug history. 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 subside within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without medications of any kind through a holistic detoxification.

Medically assisted detoxification takes place in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This could be necessary for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription medications that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox may also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would prefer to be administered medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate medications.
