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

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Onyx offers medical detox services, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation program to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
