Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Range, AL.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Range offers medically managed detox services, which is performed with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. 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, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery facility to handle their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
