Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Penryn, CA.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you may make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Penryn offers medically managed detox services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur 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 prescription medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

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