Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from substance use due to the fact that withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Parsons individuals are closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could bring about health complications or even death in more serious cases. Someone with alcoholism for example would need to be watched closely and likely given specific prescription medications that will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and medical professionals in an inpatient detox facility can ensure their safety.
There is not an exact protocol for each person in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each person presents when arriving to detox. An individual who is otherwise in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another patient may require intensive oversight and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for patients who should to take part in an actual drug and alcohol treatment facility once detox is complete.
