Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Plains, GA.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you might make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Plains provides medically supervised detox services, which is conducted with the help of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall 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 recovery facility to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
