Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - St. George, UT.

When a person is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will typically feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be done in a medically supervised detox facility or treatment facility so that the individual has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically balanced, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near St. George that people can select from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of unsafe side effects of withdrawal and may need closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. Either way, anyone detoxing or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of some of the risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can at times cause an unexpected overdose, so getting professional detox services and gaining access to a strong system of support could literally save the person's life.

Some facilities offer a holistic and natural detoxification, 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 severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce harsh withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.

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