Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you may decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Farlington provides medical detoxification services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.
For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug recovery facility to treat their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
