Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Akron, AL.

Inpatient detoxification is recommended when someone is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that there may be risks involved. While in an inpatient detoxification setting in Akron clients can be closely watched for withdrawal symptoms which could bring about health complications or even death in more serious instances. Someone suffering with alcoholism for instance may need to be watched closely and likely administered certain prescription medications that will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in an inpatient detox center would keep them safe.

There isn't an exact process for each individual in detox, because of the unique differences that each person presents when entering the detoxification facility. An individual who is basically in good health may go through detox for 3 or 4 days and be released without much intervention, while another person may require comprehensive supervision and intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the highest concern, as well as a transition to treatment for patients who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol rehabilitation program once detoxification is finished. Many detoxification facilities collaborate with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, since detox is merely the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for recovering addicts.
