Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Mission Viejo, CA.

When someone is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox may be performed in a medically supervised detoxification center or treatment center so that the individual 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 Mission Viejo that clients can pick from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of detox and likely need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone considering detox or making the decision 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 with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times result in an accidental overdose, so obtaining supervised detoxification services and having access to a strong system of support could truly save the person's life.

Some programs provide a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the individual's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days without much intervention and can be done without drugs of any kind through a holistic detoxification.

Medical detoxification takes place in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription drugs. This might be necessary for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification might also be preferred among opioid dependent clients, who would prefer to be administered medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
