Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Granada, CO.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Granada offers medical detox, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment center to work on their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
