Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Evangeline, LA.

When an individual is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will typically have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be managed in a medically supervised detox center or rehab center so that the person has fully removed all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are mentally and physically stable, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.

There are various different types of detox in or near Evangeline that people can select from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of harmful side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone considering detox or making the decision 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 some of the risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an unexpected overdose, so getting professional detox services and securing access to a robust system of support could truly save the person's life.

Some facilities offer a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't anticipated 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 result in severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be done without drugs of any kind through a holistic detox.

Medically assisted detox is done in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of medications. This could be necessary for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with particular prescription drugs that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detox may also be desirable among opiate addicted clients, who would rather be administered detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid medications.
