Hospital inpatient drug treatment is a type of rehabilitation that is done in a hospital facility and is conducted by health professionals and other medical staff. Hospital inpatient rehab is often required if there is any chance of life threatening symptoms of withdrawal, which is often true with alcohol and with a category of medical drug known as benzodiazepines which should be monitored extremely carefully by medical experts in case of any issues. Hospital inpatient treatment may be delivered to people in Egypt who choose to take part in medication assisted withdrawal, as is true with treatment clients in Egypt that are opiate dependent and desire to use this kind of withdrawal method to avoid the harsh symptoms associated with heroin or other opiate withdrawal. This form of opiate detoxification is not in any way a form of rehab in itself however, and treatment clients will require additional time spent in rehab to fully overcome opiate addiction.
