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

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Mc Donald offers medical detoxification services, which is administered with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation facility to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
