Detox - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Inverness, MS.

When someone is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will typically have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be performed in a medically supervised detoxification facility or rehab facility so that the person 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 various different types of detox in or near Inverness that individuals can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of harmful side effects of detox and may need closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone detoxing or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so at a qualified facility 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 chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes result in an unexpected overdose, so getting professional detoxification services and gaining access to a robust system of support could actually save the individual's life.

Some facilities offer a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't expected that there might be any risks or complications based off of the person's current drug use and current state of health. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a natural detoxification.

Medical detoxification is performed in an inpatient setting with the use of medications. This may be necessary for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will need medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription drugs that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detoxification may also be desirable among opiate addicted individuals, who would rather be administered detox medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
