Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Campti, LA.

When an individual is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox may be performed in a medically supervised detox facility or treatment facility so that the client has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Campti that clients can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of withdrawal and may need closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone considering detox or wanting to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so at a qualified facility and not at home on their own. This is because of the many health risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an unintended overdose, so receiving professional detox services and having access to a strong system of support could literally save the individual's life.

Some facilities offer a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or complications based off of the client's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a natural detox.

Medically assisted detox is done in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This may be required for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that individuals develop dependence to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would want receive medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid medications.
