Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Vanlue, OH.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you might decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Vanlue offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has a history 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 and/or alcohol treatment program to handle their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
