Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Scott Bar, CA.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you might make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Scott Bar provides medically supervised detox, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery center to handle their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
