Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Cloverport, KY.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you could make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Cloverport provides medically managed detox, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab program to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
