Setting
-
Hospital inpatient/24-hour hospital inpatient
Those with severe addictions who need medical detox can receive the intensive care they need in a hospital inpatient setting. 24 hour care can be given, including appropriate medications and therapy.
-
Outpatient
Outpatient treatment centers offer the same level of care as inpatient settings while also allowing the patient to be able to return home each day
-
Hospital inpatient detoxification
For some substance use disorders, such as with opioids, the withdrawal symptoms can be extremely uncomfortable and for those addicted to benzodiazepines or alcohol, even life-threatening. In these instances, a medically supervised detox may be necessary to ensure the process is handled safely.
-
Hospital inpatient treatment
Inpatient treatment programs are usually recommended (but not reserved) for those suffering from more severe forms of addiction, especially with drugs that have dangerous withdrawal symptoms, such as alcohol or benzodiazepines.
-
Intensive outpatient treatment
IOP requires patients to attend day treatment for three hours a day, often for five days a week but declining as recovery improves.
- Regular outpatient treatment
Detox
-
Alcohol Detoxification
The safest and most effective way of tackling detox is through an alcohol rehab center with dedicated medical supervision. This reduces the risks of medical complications caused by withdrawal and reduces the likelihood of relapse
-
Benzodiazepines Detoxification
The physical and psychological effects of benzodiazepine withdrawal, such as seizures and suicidal ideation, are potentially life-threatening and should always be treated by medical professionals in a medically supervised detox.
-
Opioids detoxification
Most people experiencing opioid withdrawal will begin to feel symptoms within the first 8-24 hours after their last dose, and sometimes even sooner. Without a monitored detoxification, these intense withdrawal symptoms will often cause the sufferer to relapse. Opioid detoxification can include a course of medication to help alleviate cravings and manage uncomfortable withdrawal symptoms.
