Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - De Smet, SD.

When a person is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will likely feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox can be managed in a medically supervised detox center or rehab facility so that the person has fully removed all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are various different types of detox in or near De Smet that people can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of detox and may need closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone considering detox 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 some of the health risks associated in some cases, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes cause an unexpected overdose, so receiving supervised detoxification services and having access to an extensive system of support could truly save the person's life.

Some facilities provide a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there would be any risks or health hazards based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be done without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

Medical detoxification is done in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription drugs. This could be necessary for someone who is battling alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription drugs that individuals develop dependence to. Medical detoxification might also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would prefer to receive medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate medications.
