Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Brea, CA.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Brea offers medical detoxification services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used 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 withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehabilitation facility to treat their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
