Detox - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Franklin, VT.

When someone is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will typically feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox may be done in a medically supervised detoxification center or treatment facility so that the person has eliminated the drugs from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are various different types of detox in or near Franklin that people can pick from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. Either way, anyone detoxing or making the decision to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so at a qualified facility and not on their own. This is because of some of the health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can at times cause an unintended overdose, so getting supervised detox services and securing access to a robust system of support could actually save the individual's life.

Some programs provide a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't anticipated that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the client'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 beginning stages of detox. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be accomplished without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

Medically assisted detox takes place in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription drugs. This may be necessary for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will need medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that individuals develop dependence to. Medically assisted detoxification might also be desirable among opioid dependent individuals, who would prefer to be administered detox medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid medications.
