Detoxification - Clarence, Louisiana

Men and women who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will initially go through detox before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is basically the procedure of the drug being eliminated from one's system, which is usually uncomfortable and may carry risks if not carried out in a setting which can provide appropriate support and medical intervention as necessary. Detox services are supplied at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug treatment facility which can effectively oversee and provide medical supervision for persons who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services generally include insuring the individual is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, supplying proper nutrition and making certain the particular person is getting proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as required to make the detoxification process as smooth and safe as possible. The person in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some sort of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detoxification facility or drug rehabilitation facility which can provide detox services, the individual will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to assure that any complications are resolved as quickly and safely as possible.
