Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Fairfield, VT.

When an individual is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will likely feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be done in a professional detoxification facility or rehab facility so that the client has eliminated 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 a number of different types of detox in or near Fairfield that clients can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of harmful side effects of withdrawal and may require closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. 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 the many medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes cause an accidental overdose, so getting professional detox services and having access to an extensive system of support could truly save the person's life.

Some programs offer a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't expected that there will 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 produce severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without medications of any kind through a natural detoxification.

Medical detoxification takes place in an inpatient setting with the use of medications. This could be necessary for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medical detox may also be favored among opiate addicted clients, who would rather be administered medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate medications.
