Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Lowell, IN.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you could choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Lowell provides medical detoxification services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history 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 program to treat their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
