Detox - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Wishon, CA.

When a person is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will likely have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be performed in a professional detox facility or rehab facility so that the client has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Wishon that people can select from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone detoxing or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of some of the health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can commonly result in an accidental overdose, so getting supervised detoxification services and gaining access to an extensive system of support could actually save the individual's life.

Some programs provide a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't expected that there would be any risks or complications based off of the client's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in harsh 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 done in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription medications. This could be necessary for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will require medication to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription drugs that people develop dependence to. Medical detoxification might also be favored among opiate addicted clients, who would rather be administered medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate medications.
