Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Lamar, CO.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Lamar patients are closely watched for withdrawal symptoms that may cause health complications or even death in more serious cases. Someone struggling with alcoholism for instance would need to be closely monitored and likely given certain medications that works to prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that may cause very similar withdrawal effects, and medical professionals in the inpatient detox facility would minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact protocol for each individual in detox, because of the unique health differences that each person exhibits when entering detox. Someone who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may go through detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another person may require comprehensive care and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for clients who need to attend an actual substance abuse treatment program once detoxification is finished. Many detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive rehabilitation plan for recovering addicts.
