Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Shongaloo, LA.

When a person is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox can be performed in a medically supervised detox facility or rehab facility so that the client has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and undoubtedly off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Shongaloo that people can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of unsafe side effects of detox and likely need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. 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 health risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can at times cause an unintended overdose, so getting supervised detoxification services and having access to a strong system of support could truly save the person's life.

Some programs offer a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't expected that there will 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 severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.

Medically assisted detoxification is done in an inpatient facility with the use of medications. This may be necessary for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will require medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with particular prescription drugs that people get addicted to. Medical detox may also be preferred among opiate addicted clients, who would rather be given medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
