When someone is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox may be done in a professional detox center or treatment center so that the client 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 few different types of detox in or near Boston that clients can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone considering detox or wanting to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so at a qualified facility and not at home on their own. This is because of some of the risks associated in some cases, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times cause an unintended overdose, so obtaining professional detoxification services and having access to a strong system of support could actually save your life.
Some facilities provide a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there might 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 harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be accomplished without medications of any kind through a holistic detoxification.
Medically assisted detoxification is performed in an inpatient facility with the use of medications. This might be required for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medical detoxification may also be preferred among opioid dependent individuals, who would want be administered detox medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid medications.
