When an individual is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will typically feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be done in a professional detoxification facility or rehab center so that the person has fully removed all of the drugs from their system and they are physically and mentally balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and no longer drinking.
There are a few different types of detox in or near Omaha that people can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and may need closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Regardless, anyone considering detox or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of the many health risks associated in some cases, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes result in an unintended overdose, so getting supervised detox services and securing access to a strong system of support could truly save the individual's life.
Some programs offer a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't likely that there would be any risks or complications based off of the individual's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be done without drugs of any kind through a holistic detoxification.
Medically assisted detoxification is done in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription medications. This may be necessary for someone who is battling alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to prevent 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 desirable among opiate addicted individuals, who would prefer to receive medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
