Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you may make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Willoughby offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.
For an individual who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery facility to work on their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
