When an individual is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be managed in a professional detox facility or treatment center so that the person has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically balanced, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.
There are a number of different types of detox in or near Fort Mitchell that clients can pick from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. Either way, anyone considering detox or wanting 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 chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an accidental overdose, so receiving professional detoxification services and having access to an extensive system of support could literally save the person's life.
Some programs offer a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be done 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 medications. This may be required for someone who is battling alcoholism and will require medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medical detox may also be preferred among opioid dependent clients, who would prefer to be given medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid drugs.
