Detox - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Conway Springs, KS.

When someone is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will typically feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox can be done in a medically supervised detoxification facility or rehab center so that the individual has fully removed all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are various different types of detox in or near Conway Springs that people can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of withdrawal and may need closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. Either way, anyone detoxing or making the decision 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 some of the risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times cause an unintended overdose, so obtaining supervised detoxification services and gaining access to a robust system of support could truly save the individual's life.

Some programs provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't likely that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the individual's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.

Medically assisted detoxification takes place in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription medications. This may be required for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be preferred among opioid dependent clients, who would prefer to be administered medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate medications.
