Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - San Joaquin, CA.

When a person is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will likely feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox may be done in a medically supervised detox facility or rehab facility so that the person has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system 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 San Joaquin that people can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of detox and may need closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Regardless, anyone detoxing or wanting to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of the many risks associated in some cases, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can at times result in an accidental overdose, so receiving supervised detoxification services and gaining access to a strong system of support could truly save the individual's life.

Some programs provide a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't likely that there might be any risks or health hazards based off of the person's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days without much intervention and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a natural detoxification.

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