Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - King, NC.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol because there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in King patients are closely observed for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which may cause health complications or even death in more severe instances. Someone with alcoholism for instance will need to be closely monitored and likely administered certain medications that works to prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and medical professionals in an inpatient detoxification center would ensure their safety.

There isn't an exact practice for each individual in detox, because of the unique health differences that each person exhibits when entering detox. An individual who is otherwise in good health may be in detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much intervention, while another person may need to have intensive supervision and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the utmost concern, as well as a transition to a rehabilitation facility for clients who need to take part in an actual substance abuse rehabilitation facility once detox is complete. Many detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is merely the first step in an overall treatment plan for recovering addicts.
