Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Kotlik, AK.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you may make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Kotlik offers medical detox, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab facility to treat their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
