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

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Snelling offers medical detox, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual 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 treatment program to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
