What is Medically-Assisted Detox?
There are two main types of detox available at our detox center: detox with the help of medication and without. There are positive aspects to both types of detox options, and the best solution will end up being whichever option works best for your specific situation. However, there are a few differences in these treatment methods you should be aware of.
For heavy users of specific substances, detox can be difficult. With the use of certain drugs administered by medical professionals, withdrawal symptoms can be reduced, and patients can be more easily weaned off the drug. For example, common “substitute drugs” that are frequently used include suboxone and methadone, which are both safer alternatives to other, dangerous and highly addictive drugs. The one downside to this type of detox is the danger that patients can, in turn, become addicted to the substitute drug. This is why it’s vital for medically-assisted detox to be closely monitored by experienced and licensed professionals.
Detox without the help of medications is also an option for some patients. However, this greatly depends on the type of substance involved, as well as the depth and degree of their substance abuse problem. A licensed and experienced therapist can help guide you through whichever type of detox is best for you.
