Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Lachine, MI.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you might decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Lachine offers medically managed detox, which is performed with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab center to work on their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
