Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Alpine, NJ.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you can make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Alpine provides medically managed detoxification services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug recovery center to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
