Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Monroe, IN.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Monroe provides medically managed detoxification services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery program to work on their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
