Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Gilmanton Iron Works, NH.

When someone is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox may be performed in a professional detox facility or treatment facility so that the client 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 no longer drinking.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Gilmanton Iron Works that people can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and may 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 health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times cause an accidental overdose, so receiving supervised detox services and securing access to a strong system of support could truly save your life.

Some facilities offer a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't anticipated that there might be any risks or complications based off of the person'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 present extreme withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a natural detox.

Medically assisted detox is done in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription medications. This might be required for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will require medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detox might also be desirable among opiate addicted clients, who would rather receive detox medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
