When someone is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will likely feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be performed in a medically supervised detoxification center or treatment facility so that the individual has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.
There are a number of different types of detox in or near Burnsville that clients can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of unsafe side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. Either way, anyone detoxing or making the decision 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 medical risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can at times result in an accidental overdose, so getting professional detox services and having access to an extensive system of support could literally save the individual's life.
Some facilities offer a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there will be any risks or complications based off of the individual'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 produce extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.
Medical detox is done in an inpatient setting with the use of medications. This may be required for someone who is battling alcoholism and will need medication to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox might also be favored among opiate addicted clients, who would want be administered detox medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid medications.
