When an individual is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be managed in a professional detox facility or rehab facility so that the person has fully removed all of the drugs from their system and they are physically and mentally stable, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.
There are a number of different types of detox in or near Charlottesville that individuals can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of withdrawal and likely require 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 with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of some of the health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly result in an accidental overdose, so obtaining professional 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 detox, when it isn't likely that there would 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, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a natural detoxification.
Medically assisted detox takes place in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription medications. This may be required for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will require medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification might also be desirable among opiate addicted clients, who would want be administered detox medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid drugs.
