Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Owens Cross Roads, AL.

When someone is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will typically have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be performed in a medically supervised detoxification center or rehab facility so that the individual has fully removed all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Owens Cross Roads that people can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone considering detox or making the decision to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so at a qualified facility and not at home on their own. This is because of the many health risks associated in some cases, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an unexpected overdose, so getting supervised detoxification services and having access to an extensive system of support could actually save the person's life.

Some facilities offer a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or complications based off of the client's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a holistic detox.

Medically assisted detox is performed in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of medications. This may be required for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that individuals develop dependence to. Medical detox might also be preferred among opioid dependent clients, who would want be administered medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid medications.
