Detox - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Artois, CA.

When a person is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will typically experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be performed in a medically supervised detox facility or rehab facility so that the client 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 various different types of detox in or near Artois that people can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of unsafe side effects of detox and may 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 the many medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes cause an accidental overdose, so obtaining supervised detoxification services and having access to an extensive system of support could literally save your life.

Some programs offer a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there would be any risks or health hazards based off of the individual's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be done without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

Medical detoxification is done in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of medications. This might be necessary for an individual who is struggling with alcoholism and will need medication to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription drugs that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification might also be desirable among opiate addicted clients, who would want receive detox medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
