When a person is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be managed in a professional detox facility or treatment center so that the client 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 alcohol.
There are a few different types of detox in or near Thousand Oaks that people can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone considering detox or wanting 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 medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly cause an unintended overdose, so getting supervised detox services and gaining access to an extensive system of support could literally save the individual's life.
Some programs offer a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't likely that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the individual's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present extreme withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be done without medications of any kind through a holistic detoxification.
Medical detoxification takes place in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription drugs. This might be required for an individual who is struggling with alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that individuals develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox may also be favored among opioid dependent clients, who would prefer to be administered medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate medications.
