Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Antler, ND.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you could make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Antler offers medically supervised detox, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery program to work on their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
