Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Maysville, KY.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you may make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Maysville offers medical detox services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation facility to work on their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
