Detox - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Portsmouth, NH.

When an individual is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will typically feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be done in a professional detox facility or rehab center so that the individual has fully removed all of the drugs from their system and they are mentally and physically stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are various different types of detox in or near Portsmouth that individuals can pick from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and may require closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. Regardless, anyone considering detox or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so at a qualified facility and not on their own. This is because of the many risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes result in an unexpected overdose, so receiving professional detox services and gaining access to an extensive system of support could actually save your life.

Some facilities offer a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't anticipated that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the client's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present extreme withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a natural detoxification.

Medically assisted detox takes place in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of medications. This might be necessary for an individual who is struggling with alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription medications that individuals develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox may also be favored among opiate addicted individuals, who would rather be given medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid drugs.
