Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Fredericksburg, OH.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you may choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Fredericksburg provides medically supervised detox services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment program to work on their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
