Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Des Peres, MO.

Inpatient detoxification is vital when someone is withdrawing from substance use because withdrawal can be dangerous. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Des Peres individuals can be closely monitored for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may bring about health risks or even death in more severe instances. Someone suffering with alcoholism for instance would need to be closely monitored and possibly given certain prescription medications which works to prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that could bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification facility would ensure their safety.

There isn't an exact process for each patient in detox, because of the unique differences that each individual exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. A person who is otherwise physically and mentally healthy may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another patient may need intensive supervision and intervention for a couple weeks. Medical safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for clients who need to take part in an actual substance abuse treatment facility once detoxification is complete. Most detox facilities collaborate with drug rehab programs to make this transition possible, since detoxification is only the first step in an overall treatment plan for people in recovery.
