Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - West Monroe, LA.

When someone is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will typically have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox can be performed in a professional detox facility or rehab facility so that the client has eliminated all of the drugs from the body and they are mentally and physically balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near West Monroe that individuals can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of unsafe side effects of detox and likely require closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone considering detox or making the decision to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of some of the health risks associated in some cases, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an unexpected overdose, so receiving professional detoxification services and securing access to a strong system of support could literally save the individual's life.

Some facilities provide a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't likely that there might be any risks or complications 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 result in harsh withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days without much intervention and can be done without medications of any kind through a holistic detox.

Medical detoxification takes place in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription medications. This might be necessary for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription drugs that individuals get addicted to. Medical detox might also be preferred among opioid dependent clients, who would rather receive medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid medications.
