Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Santa Rosa, NM.

When an individual is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will typically feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox may be managed in a medically supervised detox facility or rehab center so that the individual has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Santa Rosa that individuals can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of harmful side effects of withdrawal and may require closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone detoxing or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use 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 decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can at times result in an unintended overdose, so receiving supervised detoxification services and securing access to a robust system of support could literally save the individual's life.

Some programs provide a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the client's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

Medical detoxification is done in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription medications. This may be necessary for someone who is battling alcoholism and will require medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that individuals get addicted to. Medical detoxification may also be preferred among opioid dependent individuals, who would prefer to receive detox medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate medications.
