Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Wallace, SC.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you can decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Wallace offers medical detox services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

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