Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Durham, CT.

Inpatient detoxification is vital when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol considering withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Durham clients can be closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could bring about health risks or even death in more severe cases. Someone with alcoholism for example will need to be observed closely and possibly given certain prescription medications that will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that could bring about very similar symptoms, and medical professionals in an inpatient detox facility can keep them safe.

There isn't an exact process for each client in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each patient exhibits when entering the detoxification facility. An individual who is basically in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another person may need to have intensive oversight and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to treatment for individuals who need to attend an actual drug and alcohol treatment center once detoxification is finished. Most detoxification facilities work with drug rehab programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in an overall recovery plan for recovering addicts.
