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

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you might decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Whitewater provides medical detox, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug treatment facility to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
