When someone is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will likely feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be managed in a professional detoxification center or rehab center so that the client has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically stable, and undoubtedly off drugs and no longer drinking.
There are a number of different types of detox in or near Bronx that people can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and likely require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone detoxing 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 lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an unintended overdose, so getting professional detoxification services and securing access to a strong system of support could actually save the person's life.
Some programs provide a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the individual's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce harsh withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.
Medically assisted detoxification is performed in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription medications. This may be necessary for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will need medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription medications that individuals develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox might also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would want be given medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid medications.
