Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Lehigh Valley, PA.

Inpatient detoxification is vital when a person is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Lehigh Valley patients can be closely checked for withdrawal symptoms that may bring about health complications or even death in more serious cases. Someone suffering with alcoholism for example would need to be observed closely and likely administered certain prescription drugs that will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that can bring about very similar symptoms, and medical professionals in an inpatient detox facility would minimize health risks.

There is not an exact practice for each patient in detox, because of the unique differences that each person presents when arriving to detox. A person 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 need intensive care and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to a rehab program for clients who need to take part in an actual drug and alcohol treatment facility once detoxification is complete. Most detox facilities work with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is only the first step in an overall recovery plan for people in recovery.
