Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Village of Grosse Pointe Sh, MI.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you could make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Village of Grosse Pointe Sh provides medical detox, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

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