Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Clanton, AL.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you might make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Clanton offers medically supervised detox services, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person 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 detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation center to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
