Detox - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Palo Cedro, CA.

When a person is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will likely have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be managed in a medically supervised detox facility or treatment facility so that the client has fully removed all of the drugs from their system and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Palo Cedro that clients can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and may require closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. In any case, 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 the many health risks associated in some cases, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times result in an accidental overdose, so receiving professional detox services and securing access to an extensive system of support could literally save the person's life.

Some programs provide a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't anticipated that there would be any risks or complications based off of the client's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days without much intervention and can be done without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.

Medical detox is performed in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This could be necessary for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be desirable among opiate addicted clients, who would prefer to receive medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
