When someone is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will typically have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be done in a professional detox center or treatment facility so that the individual has eliminated the drugs from the body and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and alcohol.
There are a few different types of detox in or near Oklahoma City that individuals can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and may need closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone detoxing or wanting 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 some of the risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times result in an unexpected overdose, so obtaining supervised detoxification services and having access to a strong system of support could literally save the individual's life.
Some programs provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't expected that there might be any risks or health hazards based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without medications of any kind through a natural detoxification.
Medically assisted detox takes place in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription medications. This might be necessary for an individual who is struggling with alcoholism and will need medication to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification might also be preferred among opioid dependent individuals, who would rather be administered detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid drugs.
