Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you can make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Beverly provides medically managed detox, which is carried out with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.
For someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug treatment program to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
