Detox - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Brownsville, OR.

When a person is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will typically have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be managed in a professional detoxification facility or treatment facility so that the individual has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally balanced, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Brownsville that clients can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of critical 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 with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of the many risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can commonly cause an accidental overdose, so receiving professional detoxification services and having access to an extensive system of support could literally save your life.

Some facilities provide a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there will be any risks or complications based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days without much intervention and can be accomplished without medications of any kind through a holistic detox.

Medically assisted detox is performed in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription drugs. This could be required for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will require medication to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription drugs that individuals get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be desirable among opioid dependent clients, who would want be given medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate medications.
