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

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you can choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Milltown offers medically managed detoxification services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and physicians 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 benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation program to work on their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
