Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Cairo, OH.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you could choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Cairo provides medically managed detoxification services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where 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 stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

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