Detox - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - The Lakes, NV.

When a person is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will likely experience withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxes. Detox can be performed in a medically supervised detox center or rehab facility so that the client has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are mentally and physically balanced, and of course off drugs and alcohol.

There are various different types of detox in or near The Lakes that clients can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. Either way, anyone detoxing or making the decision 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 the many medical risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times result in an unintended overdose, so getting supervised detox services and having access to a strong system of support could literally save the person's life.

Some facilities provide a holistic and natural detox, when it isn't anticipated that there would be any risks or health hazards based off of the client'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 produce extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be done without medications of any kind through a natural detoxification.

Medically assisted detoxification is done in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription medications. This might be required for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription medications that people develop dependence to. Medically assisted detoxification might also be preferred among opiate addicted individuals, who would rather receive detox medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
