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

When an individual is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will likely experience withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox may be managed in a professional detoxification center or treatment center so that the person has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Richton that clients can select from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of harmful side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone detoxing or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so at a qualified facility and not on their own. This is because of some of the medical risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can commonly result in an accidental overdose, so obtaining professional detox services and having access to a strong system of support could actually save the person's life.

Some programs offer a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't likely that there might be any risks or health hazards based off of the person's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present extreme withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be done without drugs of any kind through a natural detox.

Medical detoxification takes place in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription medications. This could be required for an individual who is battling alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detox may also be preferred among opioid dependent clients, who would want receive medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid medications.
