Inpatient detoxification is suggested when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol considering there may be risks involved. In an inpatient detoxification setting in Checotah individuals can be closely observed for withdrawal symptoms that may bring about health risks or even death in more serious instances. Someone with alcoholism for example would need to be watched closely and likely given specific prescription drugs which would prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can cause very similar withdrawal symptoms, and medical professionals in an inpatient detox center can keep them safe.
There is not an exact protocol for each person in detoxification, because of the unique health differences that each individual presents when arriving to the detoxification facility. An individual who is otherwise in good health may go through detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different patient may need intensive oversight and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for patients who need to take part in an actual drug and alcohol rehab facility once detox is complete. Most detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehab programs to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detoxification is only the first step in an overall recovery plan for people in recovery.
