Detox - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - New Bedford, MA.

When an individual is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will experience withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox may be performed in a professional detoxification facility or rehab facility so that the person has fully removed all of the drugs from their system and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are various different types of detox in or near New Bedford that clients can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and may require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Regardless, anyone detoxing or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so at a qualified facility and not at home on their own. This is because of some of the risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes result in an accidental overdose, so obtaining professional detoxification services and having access to a robust system of support could actually save your life.

Some facilities provide a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't likely that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the individual's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.

Medically assisted detox is performed in an inpatient setting with the use of medications. This might be required for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will require medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medical detoxification may also be favored among opioid dependent individuals, who would rather receive medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate medications.
