Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Elton, LA.

When someone is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will likely experience withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox may be done in a medically supervised detoxification facility or rehab facility so that the person has fully removed all of the drugs from the body and they are mentally and physically stable, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Elton that individuals can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of detox and likely require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone considering detox or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so at a qualified facility 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 detoxification can commonly cause an accidental overdose, so obtaining supervised detox services and gaining access to a robust system of support could truly save the individual's life.

Some facilities offer a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't anticipated that there might be any risks or health hazards based off of the individual's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be accomplished without drugs 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 suffering from alcoholism and will need medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that individuals develop dependence to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be favored among opioid dependent clients, who would prefer to be given medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate medications.
