Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Double Springs, AL.

When someone is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox may be done in a professional detox center or rehab facility so that the client has eliminated 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 few different types of detox in or near Double Springs that clients can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of withdrawal and may need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone detoxing or wanting 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 with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can at times result in an unintended overdose, so receiving supervised detox services and gaining access to a robust system of support could truly save the person's life.

Some facilities offer a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't expected 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, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce harsh withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a holistic detoxification.

Medically assisted detoxification is done in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription medications. This could be required for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that people develop dependence to. Medical detox may also be preferred among opioid dependent clients, who would want be given medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid medications.
