Detox - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Crawford, MS.

When an individual is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will likely experience withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be managed in a professional detox facility or rehab center so that the person has fully removed all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Crawford that clients can pick from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and may need closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Either way, 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 some of the health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an unexpected overdose, so receiving supervised detox services and having access to a robust system of support could truly save the individual's life.

Some facilities provide a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there would be any risks or health hazards based off of the individual's current drug use and current state of health. 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 steadily decrease within a few days without much intervention and can be accomplished without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

Medically assisted detox is performed in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription medications. This may be necessary for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with some specific prescription medications that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be desirable among opioid dependent individuals, who would prefer to receive detox medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
