Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you may choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Tununak provides medically managed detox, which is carried out with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease 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 gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.
For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment facility to handle their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
