Detox - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Hettinger, ND.

When an individual is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will typically have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be performed in a medically supervised detoxification center or rehab facility so that the individual has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Hettinger that people can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone considering detox 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 decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times result in an accidental overdose, so receiving professional detoxification services and securing 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 likely that there will be any risks or complications based off of the individual's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present harsh withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a holistic detoxification.

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