When a person is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will likely feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be done in a medically supervised detoxification center or rehab facility so that the client has fully removed the drugs from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and undoubtedly off drugs and no longer drinking.
There are a number of different types of detox in or near Fresh Meadows that individuals can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone detoxing or making the decision to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so at a qualified facility and not at home on their own. This is because of the many health risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly cause an unintended overdose, so receiving professional detoxification services and securing access to a strong system of support could truly save the individual's life.
Some programs offer a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't likely that there will be any risks or complications based off of the person's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without medications of any kind through a holistic detoxification.
Medical detoxification is done in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription medications. This might be required for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will require medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medically assisted detox may also be preferred among opiate addicted clients, who would prefer to be given medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid medications.
