Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Ridgeway, SC.

When an individual is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will likely experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be performed in a professional detoxification center or rehab center so that the person has fully removed all of the drugs and/or alcohol 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 Ridgeway that individuals can pick from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. Either way, anyone detoxing or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of the many health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can at times cause an accidental overdose, so getting professional detoxification services and securing access to a robust system of support could truly save the person's life.

Some facilities offer a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't likely that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the individual'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 produce severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a natural detoxification.

Medical detoxification is done in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription medications. This could be necessary for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription drugs that people develop dependence to. Medical detoxification may also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would rather be given medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid medications.
