Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Nottingham, NH.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you may choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Nottingham provides medically supervised detoxification services, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab center to handle their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
