Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Custer, MI.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you may make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Custer provides medical detox, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. 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 an individual who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment center to handle their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
