Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Siloam, GA.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you could decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Siloam provides medical detox services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person 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 rehabilitation center to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
