Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Little Lake, MI.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you could choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Little Lake offers medically supervised detox, which is carried out with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab program to treat their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
