Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Anoka, MN.

When someone is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox can be done in a medically supervised detoxification facility or treatment center so that the individual has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Anoka that individuals can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of critical side effects of detox and may need closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone detoxing 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 the many medical risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes result in an unexpected overdose, so obtaining supervised detox services and having access to a strong system of support could truly save the individual's life.

Some programs provide a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there would 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 present harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days on their own and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

Medically assisted detox is performed in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription medications. This may 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 certain prescription medications that individuals develop dependence to. Medical detox might also be preferred among opiate addicted clients, who would want receive medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid drugs.
