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

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Newburg provides medically supervised detox, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has a history 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 recovery facility to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
