Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Stow, OH.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you might make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Stow offers medical detoxification services, which is performed with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehab center to treat their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
