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

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you may make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Choccolocco provides medically managed detox, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug recovery facility to handle their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
