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

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Tallassee provides medical detox, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation facility to treat their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
