Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - North Haverhill, NH.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you could choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in North Haverhill provides medically supervised detox services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. 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 been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation center to work on their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
