Inpatient detoxification is vital when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in San Francisco individuals are closely watched for withdrawal symptoms which could bring about health complications or even death in more serious instances. an individual struggling with alcoholism for example may need to be watched closely and possibly administered specific prescription drugs which will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that can cause very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detox center would ensure their safety.
There isn't an exact practice for each individual in detox, because of the unique differences that each individual exhibits when entering detox. A person who is otherwise in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much intervention, while another person may require comprehensive oversight and intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for individuals who should to go to an actual drug and alcohol rehabilitation center once detoxification is finished. Many detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehab programs to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in an overall rehabilitation plan for people in recovery.
