Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Grafton, VT.

When a person is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will typically have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox may be performed in a professional detoxification center or treatment center so that the person has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are various different types of detox in or near Grafton that people can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of unsafe side effects of withdrawal and may require closer monitoring 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 medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes result in an unexpected overdose, so getting professional 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 detox, when it isn't anticipated 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, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be done without medications of any kind through a holistic detoxification.

Medically assisted detox takes place in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This may be required for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will need medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription medications that people develop dependence to. Medical detox may also be desirable among opiate addicted clients, who would prefer to be given detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid medications.
