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

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Ottawa Lake provides medically supervised detox, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab facility to work on their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
