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

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you could decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Amigo provides medically supervised detox, which is administered 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 may need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment facility to treat their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
