Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Lafox, IL.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when an individual is withdrawing from substance use because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Lafox patients are closely watched for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may bring about health complications or even death in more serious cases. Someone with alcoholism for example may need to be observed closely and likely administered certain prescription medications that would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that may bring about very similar withdrawal effects, and medical professionals in an inpatient detoxification facility will ensure their safety.

There isn't an exact process for each individual in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each patient presents when entering the detoxification facility. A person who is basically in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while a different person may require comprehensive care and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to treatment for individuals who need to go to an actual substance abuse rehabilitation facility once detoxification is complete. Many detox facilities work with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
