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

When a person is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will typically have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be performed in a professional detox facility or treatment center so that the client has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Kenner that clients can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and may need closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. Regardless, anyone detoxing or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so at a qualified facility and not on their own. This is because of the many health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes result in an unintended overdose, so obtaining professional detoxification services and securing access to an extensive system of support could actually save the person's life.

Some facilities provide a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't expected that there would 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, like 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 on their own and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a holistic detoxification.

Medical detoxification is done in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription medications. This might be required for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will need medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with particular prescription medications that individuals develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox may also be desirable among opioid dependent individuals, who would prefer to be administered detox medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
