Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Janesville, IL.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Janesville patients can be closely observed for withdrawal symptoms that may cause health risks or even death in more serious instances. Someone with alcoholism for example may need to be closely monitored and possibly given certain prescription drugs that works to prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that may bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detox facility will ensure their safety.

There isn't an exact protocol for each person in detox, because of the unique health differences that each person presents when arriving to the detoxification facility. Someone who is otherwise in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another person may need intensive care and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Health safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for patients who need to attend an actual drug and alcohol treatment facility once detoxification is finished. Most detoxification facilities collaborate with drug treatment programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is merely the first step in an overall rehabilitation plan for recovering addicts.
