Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Chattaroy, WV.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you might decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Chattaroy offers medically managed detoxification services, which is performed with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation facility to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
