Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Lake City, CA.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you could make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Lake City provides medically managed detoxification services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab center to treat their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
