Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Eagle Lake, ME.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you may make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Eagle Lake provides medically supervised detoxification services, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

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