Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Lake Park, MN.

When someone is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will typically have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be performed in a medically supervised detoxification center or rehab facility so that the individual has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are physically and mentally balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.

There are various different types of detox in or near Lake Park that people can select from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of detox and may require closer monitoring 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 the many medical risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes result in an accidental overdose, so receiving professional detoxification services and gaining access to a strong 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 complications based off of the client's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce extreme withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days on their own and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a holistic detox.

Medically assisted detox takes place in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This may be required for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification might also be desirable among opioid dependent individuals, who would rather be given medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
