Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Adrian, WV.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you could make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Adrian provides medically supervised detox, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but typically 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 withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling 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 rehab program to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
