Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Bethpage, TN.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you could choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Bethpage provides medically supervised detoxification services, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For an individual 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 rehabilitation center to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
