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

When an individual is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will likely have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox may be performed in a professional detox facility or rehab facility so that the individual has fully removed the drugs from the body and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Reserve that clients can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of unsafe side effects of detox and may need closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone considering detox or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of the many health risks associated in some cases, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times cause an unintended overdose, so obtaining professional detox services and having access to a robust system of support could literally save the individual's life.

Some facilities provide a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical 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 natural detoxification.

Medically assisted detox is performed in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription medications. This may be necessary for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox might also be preferred among opiate addicted clients, who would prefer to be administered medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
