Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Engadine, MI.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you could decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Engadine offers medically supervised detox, which is administered with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay 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 an individual who has been struggling 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 rehab center to work on their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
