Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Cerritos, CA.

When a person is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will likely experience withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox may be performed in a medically supervised detox facility or rehab facility so that the individual has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically stable, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Cerritos that clients can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and may require closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. Either way, anyone considering detox or wanting 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 detoxification can at times cause an unintended overdose, so obtaining professional detox services and securing access to an extensive system of support could actually save the person's life.

Some facilities offer a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't expected that there might be any risks or complications based off of the individual's current drug use and current state of health. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be done without drugs of any kind through a natural detox.

Medical detox is done in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This could be required for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with particular prescription drugs that people develop dependence to. Medical detoxification may also be desirable among opioid dependent individuals, who would want receive detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid medications.
