Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Lakeview, MI.

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 Lakeview patients are closely observed for withdrawal symptoms that could bring about health complications or even death in more serious instances. a person struggling with alcoholism for example would need to be closely monitored and possibly administered specific prescription medications that will prevent seizures and delirium tremens. Benzodiazepine withdrawal is another example that may bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and doctors and medical staff in the inpatient detoxification facility will ensure their safety.

There is not an exact practice for each individual in detoxification, because of the unique differences that each patient presents when arriving to detox. Someone who is basically physically and mentally healthy may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be discharged without much medical intervention, while a different patient may require comprehensive treatment and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Health safety is of the utmost concern, and also a transition to treatment for clients who need to go to an actual drug and alcohol rehabilitation program once detox is finished. Most detox facilities work with drug rehab facilities to make this transition possible, since detoxification is merely the first step in an overall rehabilitation plan for recovering addicts.
