Drug Detox Center in Los Angeles

A drug or alcohol detox can be a frightening prospect for many people. The idea of having to go through this process alone, with no support from family or friends and no distractions other than the internal voices in your own head, can trigger a lot of negative emotions.

It is precisely because of these reactions that many people who need to undergo drug or alcohol detox do so at the last minute, procrastinating until they have no other choice but to get help from an organization like Veritas Detox. If you’re afraid of starting this journey, know that you will be surrounded by caring professionals who have only your best interests in mind.

What to Expect from a Drug and Alcohol Detox in Los Angeles

Drug and alcohol detox can be a life-saving experience, depending on your individual situation. If you have not had the opportunity to enter a detox program in the past and have little to no understanding of what to expect, the process can be terrifying. Therefore, it is important that you are as informed as possible. Here is what you can expect from a drug and alcohol detox at Veritas Detox:

A Thorough Medical Assessment: When you arrive at our Los Angeles detox center, you will be assigned a medical doctor who will perform a medical assessment to gauge whether detoxing safely is an option for you. You will also be tested for any coexisting health conditions and treated accordingly.

A Psychological Assessment: Depending on your situation, you will either go through a routine psychological assessment or, if your situation is considered to be extreme, an intensive psychological evaluation. The results of this assessment will help you and your medical team plan out your detox journey.

A Detox Journey: This is the process of getting you off of drugs and/or alcohol. It may be a slow process and/or a rapid process, depending on the substances you are addicted to and the type of detox you are undergoing. Our Los Angeles drug detox center will help you through a safe and comfortable detox journey.

What to Expect

Withdrawal Symptoms and Timelines

It is important to note that the withdrawal symptoms you experience during a detox will vary depending on the substance you are detoxing from. However, some symptoms, such as nausea and vomiting, are common in all detoxes. 

Withdrawal symptoms typically peak within the first few days of detox and then gradually start to improve. However, some people may experience lingering symptoms for weeks or even months after they’ve stopped using substances.

If you’re detoxing from alcohol, you may experience a condition called delirium tremens, which can cause hallucinations, seizures, and even death. For this reason, it’s important to detox under the care of a medical professional if you’re addicted to alcohol.

If you’re detoxing from drugs like opioids, benzodiazepines, or stimulants, you may experience severe withdrawal symptoms that can even be life-threatening. That’s why it’s imperative that your detox be supervised by our detox professionals.

At our California detox center, we work with you to ensure your comfort and safety. Detox isn’t something you should have to face alone. With our professional care and attention, you can rest assured that you will detox in a safe and controlled environment.

Withdrawal symptoms can vary depending on the substance you’re addicted to, as well as how long you’ve been using that substance. In general, however, there are some common withdrawal symptoms that are experienced by many people during detoxification. These include:

  • Headaches
  • Body aches
  • Excessive sweating
  • Nausea
  • Abdominal pain
  • Intense cravings and urges
  • Diarrhea
  • Anxiety
  • Accelerated heart rate
  • Clammy skin

What Sets Us Apart

Why Should You Not Not Detox Alone?

Overview

One of the biggest reasons you should not detox alone is that it can be extremely dangerous. Many people end up in the hospital or even die from complications, such as dehydration and electrolyte imbalances. 

Moreover, you should also avoid detoxing alone because of the psychological toll it can take on you. Detoxing alone without any external support can trigger or worsen mental health conditions such as anxiety or depression. 

You can also experience feelings of isolation and a lack of self-worth. Detoxing alone is an extremely stressful process, and you do not need the added pressure of having to do this alone. Our detox program ensures that you undergo professional intervention and have a team of medical professionals that can provide you with the support you need.

In cases of severe alcoholism or drug addiction, symptoms may be brought on by delirium tremens (DT). Delirium tremens is the onset of harsh withdrawal symptoms, which include:

For those with severe withdrawal symptoms, it’s absolutely imperative that they are monitored by a professional medical team. Undergoing a detox alone is not recommended, and can pose a significant danger to your health.

Your alcohol or drug detox must be supervised by a qualified medical team. With skilled and experienced doctors and nursing staff that’s prepared to monitor your progress, Veritas Detox is the best choice for alcohol and drug detox in Los Angeles.

Frequently Asked Questions About Detoxification

What happens during your detox program?

When you first arrive our medical will screen your physical and mental health. We’ll take blood tests to determine the amount of drugs in your body, ask you questions regarding your history of substance abuse, get an understanding of any potential mental health issues, and discuss your psychiatric history. We get you settled in, start your medical protocols, and vigilantly monitor your progress. The preliminary evaluations are crucial for determining the type of detox protocols that we’ll apply.
The process typically takes 2-7 days, but it can take longer depending on the substance you are detoxing from. If the substance abuse process was severe, it can take several weeks.
Very dangerous. Admitting yourself into a quality drug addiction treatment center is the best way to safely detox from drugs and alcohol. Detoxing at home can be dangerous because you won’t be medically supervised, nor will you have access to comfort medications. Due to medical variability, we cannot guarantee complete safety, but it is far safer to detox in a clinical environment than at your home.

What Our Clients Say About Us

From the techs who became some of my best friends there to the therapist and each group facilitator. The quality was top notch. The chef took such good care of us and everything was delicious. The house and private rooms were really comfortable and peaceful. Everyone really cared and wanted each client to succeed. Thank you to everyone there and for helping me get my life back.
Rick T.
I never realized they had treatment centers, like this. Food is a ten, house is a ten, and the recovery is a ten. . The house is a mansion, no chores, cooking, cleaning or anything, just focus on recovery. The house is nothing compared to the staff, that run it. The most compassionate people, who understand this disease better than anyone I've been around.
Timothy G.
The best rehab facility I’ve ever went to my entire life the staff was absolutely incredible. And the facility is so beautiful it’s so relaxing and the food is so exquisite. The owners of the facility truly care about each client individually and are some of the best people I’ve ever met. Thank you for everything y’all did for me.
Salvador C.
While in detox, I had the most attentive care from the nurses and staff which meant the world to me. This was my first (and hopefully last) rehab experience and I don't think I could've asked for anything better. They have private chefs, excellent group sessions, top of the line doctors, therapists, and social workers. Yes, this is a place to get off of substances, but it's so much more... You can actually fix yourself here.
Dashe H.
From the walking into the doors to my final days in the facility, all of my needs were not only met but exceeded. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and caring. Most of which are in long term recovery, which is comforting as well. From therapy to extracurricular activities, I was always engaged and learning more about how to get my life back on track. Meals curated by the chef were above anything I could’ve expected. And the estate itself is breathtaking.
Napalm
Great staff really make a difference. I've gone through other treatment centers before this one feels like home people really care and have your back even after you leave. Location is beautiful amenities are great and some of the best facilitators I've ever worked with . management and owners are fantastic and personable and will bend over backwards to make sure you have the best recovery possible
