Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Mystic, CT.

Inpatient detoxification is vital when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Mystic patients can be closely observed for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may cause health risks or even death in more severe cases. an individual struggling with alcoholism for instance would need to be observed closely and probably administered certain prescription drugs that would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and medical professionals in the inpatient detox center would minimize health risks.

There is not an exact process for each individual in detox, because of the unique health differences that each individual presents when arriving to the detoxification facility. An individual who is basically physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another patient may need to have intensive care and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for clients who need to go to an actual substance abuse recovery center once detox is complete. Many detox facilities work with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
