Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - East Longmeadow, MA.

When an individual is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will likely feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be done in a medically supervised detox center or rehab facility so that the client has fully removed all of the drugs from their system and they are mentally and physically stable, and undoubtedly off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near East Longmeadow that clients can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and may require closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. In any case, 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 the many health risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes result in an accidental overdose, so receiving supervised detox services and gaining access to a robust system of support could actually save the individual's life.

Some programs offer a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't expected that there might be any risks or complications based off of the client's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be done without medications of any kind through a natural detox.

Medical detox is done in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription drugs. This may be required for an individual who is struggling with alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with particular prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medical detox may also be preferred among opiate addicted clients, who would rather be administered detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate medications.
