Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Epping, NH.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you might decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Epping offers medical detox services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment center to work on their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
