Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Evansville, WI.

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

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Evansville that clients can pick from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of withdrawal and may need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. Either way, 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 risks associated in some cases, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times result in an accidental overdose, so obtaining supervised detox services and gaining access to an extensive system of support could literally save the person's life.

Some programs offer a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't anticipated that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the individual's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.

Medically assisted detox is done in an inpatient setting with the use of medications. This could be necessary for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will require medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detox might also be favored among opiate addicted clients, who would prefer to be given medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid medications.
