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

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you can make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Gallaway provides medical detoxification services, which is performed with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab program to handle their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
