Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Orleans, VT.

When a person is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will typically experience withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox may be done in a medically supervised detox facility or treatment facility so that the client has fully removed all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are mentally and physically balanced, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Orleans that people can pick from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of detox and likely require closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone detoxing or wanting 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 with withdrawal, but also because it lowers the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly cause an accidental overdose, so obtaining supervised detoxification services and securing access to a robust system of support could actually save the individual's life.

Some programs offer a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there might be any risks or complications 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 result in harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a holistic detox.

Medical detoxification is done in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription medications. This could be necessary 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 some specific prescription drugs that individuals develop dependence to. Medical detoxification might also be preferred among opiate addicted individuals, who would want receive detox medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate medications.
