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

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs, and you can choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in De Young offers medical detox, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms 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 someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery facility to treat their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
