Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from substance use due to the fact that there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification facility in Marathon clients are closely watched for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may cause health complications or even death in more serious instances. Someone struggling with alcoholism for instance would need to be watched closely and possibly given certain medications which works to prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detoxification center 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 entering the detoxification facility. A person who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another patient may require comprehensive treatment and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to treatment for patients who need to take part in an actual substance abuse treatment facility once detox is complete. Most detoxification facilities work with drug rehab programs to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in an overall recovery plan for recovering addicts.
