Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Como, TN.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you can choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Como offers medically managed detoxification services, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery program to handle their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
