Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Point Clear, AL.

When an individual is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will typically have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox may be done in a professional detoxification facility or treatment facility so that the client has fully removed all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Point Clear that people can pick from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. Regardless, anyone detoxing or wanting to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of the many health risks associated in some cases, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an accidental overdose, so receiving supervised detox services and gaining access to a robust system of support could actually save your life.

Some facilities provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't likely that there might be any risks or complications based off of the individual's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, like 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 done without medications of any kind through a holistic detoxification.

Medically assisted detoxification is done in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription drugs. This might be necessary for someone who is battling alcoholism and will need medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detoxification might also be favored among opioid dependent clients, who would rather be administered detox medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
