Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Lexington, MO.

Inpatient detoxification is vital when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Lexington patients are closely monitored for withdrawal symptoms which could bring about health complications or even death in more severe instances. Someone suffering with alcoholism for example may need to be watched closely and likely given specific prescription medications that would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detox center will minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact practice for each patient in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each patient presents when arriving to the detoxification facility. An individual who is basically physically and mentally healthy may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while another person may require intensive care and intervention for a couple weeks. Health safety is of the greatest concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for patients who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol rehabilitation program once detoxification is finished. Most detoxification facilities work with drug rehabilitation programs to make this transition possible, since detox is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive rehabilitation plan for people in recovery.
