Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Annandale, MN.

Inpatient detoxification is vital when an individual is withdrawing from drugs or alcohol due to the fact that withdrawal can be dangerous. While in an inpatient detoxification facility in Annandale patients can be closely observed for symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal that may cause health risks or even death in more severe cases. Someone with alcoholism for example may need to be watched closely and likely administered certain prescription medications that will prevent delirium tremens and seizures. Prescription benzodiazepine withdrawal is another type of drug that may bring about very similar withdrawal symptoms, and nurses and doctors in the inpatient detoxification center will keep them safe.

There is not an exact process for each client in detox, because of the unique health differences that each patient exhibits when arriving to the detoxification facility. A person who is basically in good health may undergo detox for 4 or 5 days and be released without much medical intervention, while a different patient may require comprehensive supervision and medical intervention for 7 to 10 days or more. Medical safety is of the highest concern, and also a transition to a rehabilitation facility for clients who need to attend an actual drug and alcohol rehab facility once detoxification is complete. Most detoxification facilities work with drug rehabilitation facilities to make this transition possible, due to the fact that detox is only the first step in a much more comprehensive recovery plan for people in recovery.
