Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Pavo, GA.

When an individual is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will typically have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox may be performed in a medically supervised detoxification facility or treatment center so that the individual has fully removed all of the drugs from their system 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 Pavo that clients can select from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of detox and may need closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone detoxing or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of the many medical risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can at times cause an accidental overdose, so getting supervised detoxification services and gaining access to a strong system of support could actually save the individual's 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 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 first couple days of detox. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without medications of any kind through a holistic detox.

Medically assisted detoxification takes place in an inpatient facility with the use of medications. This could be necessary for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will require medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification might also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would rather be given medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate drugs.
