Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Blandon, PA.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you can choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Blandon offers medically managed detox, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to take part in medical 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. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

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