Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Clifton Park, NY.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you could choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Clifton Park provides medically supervised detox services, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehab program to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
