Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Wood, SD.

When someone is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will likely feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox can be done in a medically supervised detoxification facility or treatment facility so that the individual has fully removed 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 Wood that clients can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and likely need closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. Either way, anyone considering detox or wanting 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 lowers the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can commonly result in an accidental overdose, so receiving supervised detoxification services and securing access to an extensive system of support could literally save the individual's life.

Some facilities offer 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 drug use and current state of health. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a natural detox.

Medically assisted detox takes place in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription medications. This might be necessary for someone who is battling alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription drugs that individuals develop dependence to. Medical detox may also be favored among opiate addicted individuals, who would prefer to be administered detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate medications.
