Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Sykesville, MD.

Inpatient detoxification is suggested when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Sykesville patients are closely watched for withdrawal symptoms which could cause health risks or even death in more serious instances. a person with alcoholism for instance may need to be watched closely and possibly given specific prescription drugs which will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that may cause very similar withdrawal effects, and doctors and medical staff in the inpatient detox facility can ensure their safety.

There is not an exact process for each individual in detox, because of the unique health differences that each person presents when arriving to detox. A person who is otherwise in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different patient may need to have intensive supervision and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for individuals who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol rehab center once detoxification is complete. Most detox facilities work with drug rehabilitation programs to make this transition possible, since detox is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive treatment plan for recovering addicts.
