Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Corinth, ME.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you might make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Corinth offers medical detox, which is administered with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery facility to handle their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
