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

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you may decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Mize provides medical detox, which is performed with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation center to work on their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
