Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Alexandria, LA.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when someone is withdrawing from substance use because there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification facility in Alexandria patients can be closely checked for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may cause health risks or even death in more serious instances. Someone suffering with alcoholism for instance may need to be observed closely and likely administered specific prescription drugs which will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can bring about very similar symptoms, and medical professionals in an inpatient detoxification center would minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact process for each person in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each individual presents when arriving to detox. An individual who is basically in good health may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much intervention, while a different person may need intensive oversight 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 patients who should to attend an actual drug and alcohol rehab facility once detoxification is finished. Most detoxification facilities work with drug rehabilitation programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in an overall treatment plan for recovering addicts.
