		However, for individuals with physiologic substance dependence, detoxification is usually related to withdrawal syndrome, that is, the predictable constellation of signs and symptoms following abrupt discontinuation of, or rapid decrease in, intake of a substance that has been used consistently for a period of time.
		Advantages of inpatient detoxification are that (1) the patient is in a protected setting where access to substances of abuse is restricted, (2) the management and monitoring of neural recovery eliminates craving, and allows a detoxification without withdrawal, and (3) detoxification can be accomplished more rapidly than it can in an outpatient setting.
		Besides, detoxification with hospitalization prepares the patient for ongoing treatment of his or her dependence on alcohol or other drugs.
