Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Lyndeborough, NH.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you may choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Lyndeborough provides medical detoxification services, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person 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 recovery center to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
