Inpatient detoxification is recommended when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol considering there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification facility in Pacific Grove clients can be closely checked for withdrawal symptoms which could bring about health risks or even death in more severe instances. a person with alcoholism for example will need to be closely monitored and likely given specific prescription medications that will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can cause very similar symptoms, and medical professionals in an inpatient detox center will ensure their safety.

Someone who is basically physically and mentally healthy may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much intervention, while another patient may require comprehensive supervision and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for clients who should to go to an actual drug and alcohol rehab facility once detox is complete.
