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

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you may choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Hamtramck provides medical detox services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease 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 withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment program to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
