Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Azusa, CA.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you may make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Azusa offers medically managed detox services, which is conducted with the help of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery program to treat their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
