Detox - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Furman, AL.

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

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Furman that individuals can pick from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and may require closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone detoxing or making the decision 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 the many health risks associated in some cases, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times cause an accidental overdose, so getting supervised detox services and securing access to a strong system of support could literally save the individual's life.

Some programs offer a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't likely that there would be any risks or complications 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 beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a natural detox.

Medical detoxification is performed in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of medications. This might be necessary for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will require medication to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medical detox may also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would rather be given detox medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
