Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Almena, WI.

When a person is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will likely experience withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox may be managed in a medically supervised detox center or treatment facility so that the individual has eliminated the drugs from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Almena that people can select from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and may need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone detoxing or making the decision 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 the many risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it lowers the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes cause an unintended overdose, so receiving professional detoxification services and securing access to a strong system of support could actually save the person's life.

Some facilities offer a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't likely that there would be any risks or complications 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 harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be done without medications of any kind through a holistic detox.

Medical detoxification is done in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This could be necessary for an individual who is struggling with alcoholism and will need medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription drugs that individuals develop dependence to. Medical detox may also be favored among opiate addicted clients, who would prefer to receive medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid medications.
