Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you might decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Atlanta offers medically managed detox, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.
For an individual who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation facility to handle their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
