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

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

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Webb that clients can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and may require closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. Regardless, anyone detoxing or wanting to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so at a qualified facility and not at home on their own. This is because of some of the medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly cause an accidental overdose, so receiving supervised detoxification services and securing access to a strong system of support could truly save the individual's life.

Some programs provide a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there would 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 result in harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be accomplished without medications of any kind through a holistic detox.

Medical detox is performed in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription drugs. This may be required for an individual who is struggling with alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with particular prescription drugs that people develop dependence to. Medical detox may also be desirable among opiate addicted individuals, who would want be administered medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate medications.
