Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Wood Ridge, NJ.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you might choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Wood Ridge offers medical detox, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab facility to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
