Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Chromo, CO.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Chromo provides medically managed detox services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days 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 an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation program to work on their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
