Detox - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - North Clarendon, VT.

When an individual is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will typically have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox can be done in a professional detox center or treatment center so that the person has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are mentally and physically stable, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near North Clarendon that people can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of harmful side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone detoxing or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of some of the risks associated in some cases, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly result in an unintended overdose, so receiving professional detox services and having access to a robust system of support could literally save your life.

Some facilities provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't anticipated that there will be any risks or complications based off of the individual's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present harsh withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be done without medications of any kind through a natural detox.

Medically assisted detoxification is done in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription drugs. This may be required for an individual who is struggling with alcoholism and will need medication to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription medications that individuals develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox may also be desirable among opiate addicted clients, who would rather receive medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate drugs.
