Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - East Calais, VT.

When an individual is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will typically feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be done in a medically supervised detoxification center or treatment center so that the individual has eliminated all of 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 East Calais that clients can pick from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of detox and likely require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone considering detox or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so at a qualified facility and not at home on their own. This is because of the many risks associated in some cases, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can at times cause an unintended overdose, so receiving supervised detoxification services and securing access to an extensive system of support could literally save the individual's life.

Some facilities provide a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or complications based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a holistic detox.

Medical detox is done in an inpatient setting with the use of medications. This may be required for an individual who is struggling with alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medical detox might also be favored among opioid dependent clients, who would rather be given detox medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
