Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Hortonville, WI.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you could decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Hortonville provides medically supervised detox services, which is performed with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay 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 health.

For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment center to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
