When a person is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be done in a professional detoxification facility or treatment center so that the person has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.
There are a few different types of detox in or near Rochester that clients can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of unsafe side effects of withdrawal and may require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Regardless, anyone considering detox 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 risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can at times cause an accidental overdose, so receiving professional detox services and having access to a robust system of support could actually save the person's life.
Some facilities offer a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there will be any risks or complications based off of the client's current drug use and current state of health. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a holistic detox.
Medically assisted detoxification is performed in an inpatient facility with the use of medications. This might be necessary for someone who is battling alcoholism and will require medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with particular prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification might also be desirable among opioid dependent individuals, who would rather receive detox medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid medications.
