Detoxification is the first part of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you might decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Sterling provides medically managed detox services, which is conducted with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug 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 rehab program to work on their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
