Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Medway, MA.

When an individual is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will typically feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox may be done in a medically supervised detox center or rehab center so that the individual has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Medway that clients can pick from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone detoxing 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 the many health risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times result in an unintended overdose, so obtaining professional detox services and having access to an extensive system of support could literally save the person's life.

Some facilities offer a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the client's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a natural detoxification.

Medically assisted detox is performed in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription drugs. This could be necessary for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detox might also be preferred among opiate addicted individuals, who would rather receive medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
