Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Houston, AR.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification facility in Houston patients are closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could cause health complications or even death in more serious cases. an individual suffering with alcoholism for example may need to be observed closely and likely given specific medications that would prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can cause very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detox facility can ensure their safety.

There is not an exact practice for each person in detox, because of the unique health differences that each patient exhibits when entering the detoxification facility. A person who is otherwise in good health may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much intervention, while another person may require intensive treatment and intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for patients who need to attend an actual substance abuse rehabilitation program once detox is complete. Most detox facilities work with drug treatment facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is merely the first step in an overall treatment plan for recovering addicts.
