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

When a person is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be done in a medically supervised detox center or treatment facility so that the client has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are various different types of detox in or near Townley that individuals can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of unsafe side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. Regardless, 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 medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can commonly result in an accidental overdose, so obtaining supervised detox services and having access to a robust 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 might be any risks or health hazards based off of the person'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 steadily decrease within a few days without much intervention and can be accomplished without medications of any kind through a holistic detox.

Medically assisted detoxification takes place in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription drugs. This may be necessary for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will need medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription drugs that people get addicted to. Medical detox might also be preferred among opioid dependent individuals, who would rather be given medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate drugs.
