Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Lower Peach Tree, AL.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Lower Peach Tree offers medical detoxification services, which is administered with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery program to handle their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
