Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Hingham, MA.

When a person is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will typically experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be managed in a professional detox center or rehab center so that the client has fully removed all of the drugs 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 Hingham that people can select from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of harmful side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. Regardless, anyone detoxing or making the decision to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of the many medical risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes cause an accidental overdose, so obtaining supervised detox services and gaining access to a robust system of support could literally save the person's life.

Some programs offer a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't likely that there will 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 present extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a holistic detox.

Medically assisted detoxification takes place in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription drugs. This could be required for an individual who is struggling with alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detox might also be favored among opioid dependent clients, who would want receive medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
