Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you might decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Mifflinburg offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.
For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation program to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
