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

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you can decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Mason offers medical detoxification services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug treatment facility to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
