Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Box Springs, GA.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Box Springs patients are closely observed for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may cause health risks or even death in more severe cases. Someone with alcoholism for example would need to be closely monitored and probably given specific prescription medications which would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could cause very similar withdrawal effects, and doctors and medical staff in an inpatient detox center will minimize health risks.

There is not an exact protocol for each person in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each individual exhibits when arriving to detox. Someone who is basically in good health may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while a different person may need to have comprehensive oversight and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for patients who should to take part in an actual substance abuse rehab facility once detoxification is finished. Most detox facilities work with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
