Detox - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Estherwood, LA.

When an individual is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will typically have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be done in a professional detoxification center or rehab center so that the person has fully removed all of the drugs from their system and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Estherwood that clients can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and may need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone detoxing or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of some of the health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an unintended overdose, so receiving professional detoxification services and securing access to a strong system of support could literally save the person's life.

Some programs provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't expected that there would be any risks or health hazards based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce severe 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.

Medically assisted detox is performed in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of medications. This may be required for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be favored among opioid dependent clients, who would rather receive medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate medications.
