Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Henagar, AL.

When a person is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will likely feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox can be done in a professional detoxification facility or treatment facility so that the individual has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Henagar that clients can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and may require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone considering detox or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of some of the risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an unintended overdose, so obtaining supervised detoxification services and securing access to an extensive system of support could literally save the person's life.

Some facilities provide a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't expected that there would be any risks or complications based off of the person's current drug use and current state of health. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a holistic detoxification.

Medically assisted detox takes place in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription drugs. This may be required for someone who is battling alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with particular prescription medications that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox may also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would rather be given medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
