Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you might choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Glen Lyon offers medical detox, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease 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 a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehab program to work on their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
