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

When an individual is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will likely feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox can be done in a professional detoxification facility or rehab facility so that the person has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are mentally and physically stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are various different types of detox in or near Maurice that clients can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and may require closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone detoxing or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so at a qualified facility and not at home on their own. This is because of the many health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes result in an accidental overdose, so obtaining supervised detoxification services and having access to an extensive system of support could literally save the person's life.

Some facilities offer a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't expected that there might be any risks or health hazards based off of the client'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 present extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without medications of any kind through a holistic detox.

Medical detoxification is performed in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription drugs. This might be necessary for an individual who is struggling with alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that individuals develop dependence to. Medical detoxification may also be preferred among opiate addicted clients, who would rather be given detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
