Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Verbank, NY.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you may choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Verbank provides medical detoxification services, which is performed with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery center to handle their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
