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

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you could choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Fife Lake offers medically managed detoxification services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People 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 withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment program to treat their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
