Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Austin, AR.

Inpatient detoxification is vital when someone is withdrawing from substance use due to the fact that withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Austin patients are closely checked for withdrawal symptoms which may cause health risks or even death in more serious cases. Someone suffering with alcoholism for example would need to be watched closely and likely administered certain prescription medications that will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can cause very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detox facility can ensure their safety.

There isn't an exact protocol for each individual in detox, because of the unique differences that each person exhibits when entering the detoxification facility. An individual who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much intervention, while a different person may require comprehensive treatment and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to treatment for clients who should to take part in an actual substance abuse rehabilitation program once detoxification is finished. Many detoxification facilities work with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is merely the first step in an overall recovery plan for recovering addicts.
