Detox - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Pacific Palisades, CA.

When a person is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be performed in a professional detox facility or treatment facility so that the person has fully removed the drugs from the body and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are various different types of detox in or near Pacific Palisades that individuals can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of withdrawal and may need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. Either way, 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 some of the medical risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an unintended overdose, so receiving professional detox services and gaining access to an extensive system of support could literally save your life.

Some programs provide a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there might be any risks or health hazards based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce extreme withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a natural detox.

Medical detox is performed in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription drugs. This may be required for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with particular prescription medications that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detoxification might also be desirable among opiate addicted clients, who would want be given detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate medications.
