Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Fair Lawn, NJ.

When an individual is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be done in a professional detox facility or treatment center so that the client has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are mentally and physically stable, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Fair Lawn that clients can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of harmful side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. Regardless, anyone detoxing or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of the many risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes result in an unintended overdose, so obtaining professional detox services and having access to a strong system of support could truly save the person's life.

Some programs provide a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't likely that there would be any risks or complications based off of the client's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

Medical detoxification is done in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This might be necessary for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that people develop dependence to. Medical detoxification might also be desirable among opiate addicted clients, who would want be administered detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid medications.
