Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Darby, PA.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you could choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Darby offers medical detox, which is performed with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall 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 rehabilitation center to work on their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
