Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Belk, AL.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Belk provides medically managed detox services, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation facility to work on their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
