Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Range, AL.

When a person is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will likely have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be performed in a professional detoxification center or treatment facility so that the person has fully removed all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are mentally and physically stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Range that clients can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of harmful side effects of detox and may need closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone detoxing or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so at a qualified facility and not on their own. This is because of some of the risks associated in some cases, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly result in an unexpected overdose, so receiving supervised detoxification services and gaining access to a robust system of support could literally save the individual's life.

Some facilities provide a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't expected that there might be any risks or health hazards based off of the client's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. 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 is done in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription drugs. This could be required for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will require medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be preferred among opioid dependent individuals, who would rather be given medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate medications.
