This will happen at an essential ambulance, although there are a number of circumstances that require such processing is performed in a hospital such as:

* No responsible person who controls the whole process.
* Co-existence of an organic illness or severe psychiatric affected person.
* Personal history of seizures or delirium by alcohol dependence.
* Multiple failures in previous attempts at outpatient detoxification.
* Presence of a significant withdrawal despite all the means employed to prevent their occurrence.

To do this detox the patient will need help, which consist of:

* Contribution of liquid fills the absence of alcohol, which will supplement with B vitamins, and this can go if there is a shortfall of those with folic acid and iron.
* Treatment of withdrawal symptoms by drug therapy, which has a calming effect on the patient and selective, for it is a large battery of drugs among which:
* Clomethiazole. Binds to its soothing action, an anticonvulsant action.
* Tetrabamate. Safer and does not potentiate the effects of alcohol.
* Other compounds. Among them Clorazepate dipotassium, diazepam, lorazepam and Tiapride.

On the other hand, and very often when there is alcohol addiction, hallucinations may be experienced between six and forty-eight hours after they quit. They are usually visual hallucinations, but may involve sounds and smells, and last from hours to weeks. Also in this period of leave or stop alcohol consumption, seizures can occur. These symptoms can lead to delirium tremens.

Delirium tremens alcohol withdrawal typically begins between 48 and 72 hours after the last intake of alcohol and it is preceded by early symptoms of withdrawal, although these may be masked or delayed by other diseases or medications. Signs of sympathetic hyperactivity (tachycardia, hypertension, fever and excessive sweating) are often deep and are the leading brands of delirium tremens, along with others as profound confusion, disorientation and severe cardiovascular disorders. Once the delirium tremens begins, there may be very severe seizures, heart attacks and strokes that can be fatal. The death rate is between 1% and 5%, and increases with delayed diagnosis of alcoholism, inadequate treatment and concurrent medical conditions.

Symptoms of withdrawal are the opposite of the pharmacological effects of alcohol consumption. As noted above, alcohol inhibits the activity of central nervous system and therefore produces sedation. During the withdrawal the central nervous system is experiencing the opposite effect: they increase the active processes while the processes are diminished depressants. These changes lead to an overactivation of central nervous system in pain from the patient, such as withdrawal symptoms.

This overactivation, which has been observed in clinical trials in patients with moderate withdrawal symptoms, is experienced sympathetic nervous system hyperactivity and an increase, which can be toxic to nerve cells, production of hormones such as cortisol and norepinephrine . It has been seen, even in people who abuse alcohol only occasionally, the hangover of the “morning after” is actually a mild form of the withdrawal symptoms while the amount of alcohol in the blood decreases.

In some patients have a lower chemical dependency, alcohol withdrawal symptoms can be so “soft” and experience tremors, sweating, nausea, headaches, anxiety or increased heart rate and blood pressure. Although these symptoms are uncomfortable, are not necessarily dangerous. But are often accompanied by a strong desire or craving to consume more alcohol, so the decision to continue abstinence or to stop drinking is much more difficult.

In contemporary society, recreational alcohol consumption has spread to all areas of society and is accepted in many cultures as an inclusive and festive custom. But with the increase of this consumption has also emerged a complex public health problem: dependence and addiction to alcohol (alcoholism), a disease with serious consequences for the health of the addict and to his family and social environment. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), between 40 and 60 percent of deaths from injuries in Europe are related to alcohol consumption (alcoholism).

Addiction to alcohol, but is still considered wrong as a matter of lack of will or character, it is a disease entity that escapes the control of the patient and requires treatment to stop drinking and binge substance. The treatment of alcohol, under this view, faces major obstacles to the recovery of the patient withdrawal.

The withdrawal syndrome is the set of physical or bodily reactions that occur when a person addicted to a substance (alcohol or beverages with ethanol, snuff or other drugs) stops using.

This syndrome may also occur in some psychological disorders and emotional dependence, which is not dependent on a substance or drug, but of affection or excessive dependence on another person, the individual presenting somatization (ie, the process by which are transformed or become emotional or psychological problems in physical pain) [citation needed]

Although symptoms vary in form and intensity according to the product used and the time it takes to develop dependence, in all cases are due to have altered the normal functioning of the nervous system.

Furthermore, the medication that is commonly used in alcohol detoxification treatments do not restore the damaged brain areas, with the added risk of masking the symptoms.

Once in the brain, drugs and alcohol affect chemicals called neurotransmitters. These are chemicals in the brain that control the flow of information between neurons or brain cells, forming synapses, while altering the mood and feelings of people.

Specifically, alcohol is a depressant of the central nervous system. It works in multiple areas, including the reticular formation, spinal cord, cerebral cortex and cerebellum, among many other neurotransmitter systems.

Therefore, to avoid withdrawal symptoms when alcohol is necessary to restore brain functions that have been damaged by alcoholism. But this is possible only with alcohol detoxification. Neurons must be restored, so that after being treated to increase its ability to use the available oxygen and can standardize the wireless exchange across cell membranes. Only this pharmacological intervention, to be conducted in alcohol detox centers specialized recover the normal neural functioning of the brain structures damaged by alcoholism, actually allows a detox without withdrawal symptoms and without alcohol craving.

In short, the risk of serious adverse consequences for some patients experiencing symptoms of alcohol withdrawal necessitates a medically controlled detoxification rehab for alcoholism. This implies an advanced drug treatment, carried out by professionals from medicine, psychology and nursing and to provide an assessment be supervised for 24 hours a day with withdrawal management in an environment or appropriate rehab hospital .

Various studies show that among the advantages of drug treatment of alcoholism detoxification inpatient ultrafast observed:

1. The patient is in a protected environment and therefore without access to substances such as drugs or alcohol,
2. The rapid neuronal recovery eliminates craving and suppresses alcohol withdrawal symptoms
3. Detoxification in an alcohol rehab specialist can be reached faster than in outpatient treatment.

Furthermore, the treatment of inpatient alcohol detoxification prepares the patient for continued treatment of their dependence on alcohol or other drugs.

During this hospitalization, patients may form therapeutic relationships with persons responsible for treatment or to other patients and can increase their ability to make conscious choices to a life dependent on alcohol.

Thus, detoxification is an opportunity to provide useful information to patients and to motivate them to continue over time outpatient psychotherapeutic treatment.
