Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Boscobel, WI.

When an individual is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be performed in a professional detoxification center or treatment facility so that the individual has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Boscobel that people can select from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and likely need closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. 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 on their own. This is because of the many medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes result in an accidental overdose, so getting supervised detox services and gaining access to a robust system of support could actually save the person's life.

Some facilities provide a holistic and natural 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 severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a holistic detox.

Medically assisted detoxification is done in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription medications. This could be required for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will need medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with particular prescription drugs that individuals get addicted to. Medically assisted detox may also be favored among opioid dependent individuals, who would prefer to be given medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate medications.
