Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Harbeson, DE.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you could choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Harbeson provides medically managed detoxification services, which is performed with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment program to handle their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
