Detox - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Boulder, MT.

When a person is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will typically experience withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be managed in a medically supervised detoxification center or rehab facility so that the person has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are various different types of detox in or near Boulder that individuals can pick from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and likely require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Either way, 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 in some cases, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly result in an unintended overdose, so receiving supervised detox services and having 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 expected that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the client's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a natural detoxification.

Medically assisted detox is done in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription medications. This could be necessary for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will need medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that individuals develop dependence to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be favored among opiate addicted clients, who would want receive detox medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid drugs.
