Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Clearlake Oaks, CA.

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

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Clearlake Oaks that people can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of unsafe side effects of detox and likely need closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone detoxing or making the decision to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so at a qualified facility and not on their own. This is because of the many health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it lowers the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly cause an unintended overdose, so receiving professional detox services and securing access to an extensive system of support could literally save your life.

Some facilities provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't expected that there would be any risks or complications based off of the client's current drug use and current state of health. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as 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 holistic detoxification.

Medical detox is done in an inpatient facility with the use of medications. This might be required for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox might also be favored among opiate addicted individuals, who would prefer to be given detox medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid drugs.
