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

When a person is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will likely experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox may be managed in a medically supervised detoxification center or treatment facility so that the individual 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 alcohol.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Harshaw that clients can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and may require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone detoxing or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of the many health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can at times result in an unexpected overdose, so receiving professional detox services and gaining access to an extensive system of support could actually save the individual's life.

Some programs provide a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't anticipated that there would be any risks or complications based off of the person's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce extreme withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a holistic detoxification.

Medical detox is performed in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription drugs. This might be required for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription drugs that people get addicted to. Medical detox might also be preferred among opiate addicted clients, who would rather receive detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid medications.
