Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Wayne, PA.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Wayne provides medical detox services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People 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 type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab facility to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
