Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Ridgeland, MS.

When an individual is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will typically have withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox may be performed in a medically supervised detox center or treatment facility so that the client has eliminated all of the drugs from their system and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Ridgeland that people can select from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of unsafe side effects of detox and may require closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. Either way, anyone detoxing or wanting to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of the many medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes result in an unexpected overdose, so receiving professional detox services and gaining access to a robust system of support could truly save your life.

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

Medically assisted detox takes place in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This may be required for someone who is battling alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription drugs that people get addicted to. Medical detoxification may also be desirable among opiate addicted clients, who would prefer to receive detox medications to temporarily relieve opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
