Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you might make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in San Diego provides medical detox, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could 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 a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab program to handle their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
