Detox - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Glen, NH.

When an individual 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 detox facility or treatment facility so that the individual has eliminated all of the drugs from the body 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 Glen that people can pick from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and may need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone considering detox or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of the many medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an unintended overdose, so getting supervised detox services and gaining access to an extensive system of support could actually save your life.

Some programs offer a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a natural detoxification.

Medical detoxification is done in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription medications. This could be necessary for an individual who is struggling with alcoholism and will require medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detox may also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would prefer to be given medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate medications.
