Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - North Hills, CA.

When an individual is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will typically feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox can be managed in a professional detoxification facility or rehab facility so that the person has fully removed all of the drugs from their system and they are physically and mentally balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.

There are various different types of detox in or near North Hills that people can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of unsafe side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone detoxing or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of some of the risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly cause an unintended overdose, so getting professional detoxification services and securing access to a strong system of support could truly save the person's life.

Some facilities provide a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the person'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 detox. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

Medical detox is done in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription medications. This may be necessary for someone who is battling alcoholism and will need medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medical detox might also be preferred among opioid dependent clients, who would want be given medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid medications.
