Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Coxsackie, NY.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you could decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Coxsackie offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery center to treat their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
