Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Happy, KY.

When a person is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will experience withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be managed in a professional detoxification center or rehab facility so that the person has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Happy that people can pick from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone considering detox or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of some of the health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an accidental overdose, so getting supervised detoxification services and gaining access to an extensive system of support could literally save the person's life.

Some facilities offer a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't expected that there would be any risks or health hazards based off of the person's current drug use and current state of health. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in extreme withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be done without drugs of any kind through a holistic detox.

Medically assisted detoxification is performed in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription medications. This might be required for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will need medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription drugs that individuals get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would prefer to be given medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
