Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Damascus, AR.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when an individual is withdrawing from substance use considering there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Damascus patients can be closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could cause health complications or even death in more severe instances. Someone suffering with alcoholism for example may need to be watched closely and likely administered certain prescription drugs that would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could bring about very similar symptoms, and medical professionals in the inpatient detox facility can ensure their safety.

There isn't an exact process for each individual in detox, because of the unique differences that each individual presents when entering detox. An individual who is basically in good health may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another person may require comprehensive treatment and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to treatment for patients who need to attend an actual substance abuse treatment facility once detoxification is complete. Many detoxification facilities work with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is merely the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
