Inpatient detoxification is suggested when an individual is withdrawing from substance use because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Deerfield Beach individuals are closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may bring about health risks or even death in more severe cases. an individual with alcoholism for example may need to be observed closely and probably administered specific prescription medications which works to prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that may bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and medical professionals in an inpatient detoxification center can minimize health risks.
There is not an exact process for each individual in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each patient exhibits when entering detox. A person who is basically physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another patient may require intensive treatment and 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 drug and alcohol rehabilitation program once detox is complete. Most detox facilities collaborate with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for recovering addicts.
