Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - East Brady, PA.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs, and you can decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in East Brady offers medical detox, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation center to treat their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
