Inpatient Drug Treatment and Detox

When a person is trying to find inpatient drug rehabs or alcohol treatment center they should find a longer termed program. Most people who are looking for a drug treatment program should make sure they need detox, counseling and life skills therapy. We do not recommend replacement drug therapy. Replacement drugs take the drug of choice of the person is already addicted to and substitute for a prescription drug like an anti-depressant.

Many addicted people only want to go into a treatment program that is only 21,28 or 30 days. We recommend trying to get into a rehab facility that is longer. A 4-6 month inpatient drug rehab will offer a very high success rate and provide a successful recovery. Most of the rehabs that offer long term care should also provide some sort of aftercare program.

Inpatient drug treatment is a very good idea for a person who suffers from drug or alcohol addiction. Residential treatment for drug addiction is essential to cleaning up our society and improving the economy and health of our people. Also people who need a prescription detox should also look at finding a rehab program after the detox is complete.
