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

When a person is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox may be done in a professional detox facility or treatment facility so that the client has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Sheffield that people can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and may require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone detoxing or wanting to quit heavy drug or alcohol use 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 lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes cause an unexpected overdose, so receiving professional detoxification services and having access to an extensive system of support could truly save your life.

Some programs provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't likely that there would be any risks or health hazards based off of the individual'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 present harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be done without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.

Medical detox is done in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription drugs. This could be required for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will need medication to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with particular prescription medications that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox may also be favored among opiate addicted clients, who would rather receive detox medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid medications.
