Detox - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Lucama, NC.

When an individual is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will typically experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be managed in a professional detoxification facility or rehab facility so that the individual has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are mentally and physically balanced, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are a few different types of detox in or near Lucama that people can select from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and may require closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone considering detox or making the decision to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so at a qualified facility and not at home on their own. This is because of the many medical risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it reduces the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can commonly result in an unintended overdose, so receiving professional detox services and gaining access to a strong system of support could actually save the person's life.

Some facilities provide a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't anticipated that there will be any risks or health hazards 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 present severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detox.

Medical detox is performed in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription medications. This may be required for an individual who is struggling with alcoholism and will require medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription medications that people get addicted to. Medical detoxification may also be preferred among opiate addicted clients, who would rather receive medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid medications.
