Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Natchitoches, LA.

When an individual is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be performed in a medically supervised detox facility or rehab facility so that the client has eliminated the drugs from their system and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Natchitoches that people can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. Either way, anyone detoxing or wanting to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so at a qualified facility and not on their own. This is because of some of the medical risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly result in an unintended overdose, so getting supervised detoxification services and gaining access to a strong system of support could truly save the individual's life.

Some programs offer a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the individual's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present harsh withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be overcome without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

Medically assisted detoxification is performed in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription drugs. This might be required for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription drugs that individuals develop dependence to. Medical detox might also be favored among opiate addicted clients, who would prefer to be given medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid medications.
