Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Castle, OK.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when a person is withdrawing from substance use because there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Castle patients can be closely watched for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal which could cause health risks or even death in more severe cases. Someone with alcoholism for example will need to be watched closely and possibly administered certain prescription medications which will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that could bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and medical professionals in an inpatient detoxification facility would minimize health risks.

There isn't an exact process for each individual in detox, because of the unique differences that each patient exhibits when arriving to detox. An individual who is basically in good health may be in detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while another patient may need intensive treatment and medical intervention for a couple weeks. Health safety is of the greatest concern, as well as a transition to a rehab program for individuals who should to attend an actual substance abuse rehabilitation center once detox is finished. Many detox facilities work with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in an overall rehabilitation plan for recovering addicts.
