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

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you may decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Moody provides medically managed detox, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab program to handle their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
