Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Huntington Woods, MI.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you can choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Huntington Woods offers medical detox services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form 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 substance they are withdrawing from and their overall 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 detoxification facility to a drug treatment facility to treat their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
