Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Odenton, MD.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when a person is withdrawing from substance use because there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification facility in Odenton patients are closely watched for withdrawal symptoms that could cause health risks or even death in more severe cases. a person with alcoholism for example would need to be closely monitored and probably administered specific prescription drugs which will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could cause very similar symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detox facility can keep them safe.

There isn't an exact practice for each individual in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each person exhibits when arriving to detox. Someone who is basically physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be discharged without much intervention, while a different person may need comprehensive oversight and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for individuals who should to attend an actual substance abuse rehabilitation center once detox is complete. Most detoxification facilities work with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is merely the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
