Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - East Lyme, CT.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification setting in East Lyme patients are closely watched for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that could bring about health complications or even death in more serious cases. a person suffering with alcoholism for example may need to be observed closely and probably administered certain medications which will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may bring about very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detox facility would minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact practice for each individual in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each patient exhibits when arriving to detox. Someone who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another patient may need to have comprehensive treatment and intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to treatment for individuals who should to attend an actual drug and alcohol treatment center once detox is complete. Many detoxification facilities collaborate with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, since detox is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for recovering addicts.
