Detox - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Egan, LA.

When an individual is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will typically have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox may be managed in a professional detox facility or rehab center so that the person has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Egan that individuals can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of unsafe side effects of detox and likely need closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone detoxing or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking 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 reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can at times cause an accidental overdose, so getting professional detoxification services and having access to a robust system of support could literally save your life.

Some facilities offer a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't expected that there would be any risks or complications based off of the individual'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 result in severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be accomplished without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.

Medically assisted detoxification takes place in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription medications. This could be necessary for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will require medication to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that individuals get addicted to. Medical detoxification might also be preferred among opiate addicted individuals, who would prefer to receive detox medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate medications.
