Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Barclay, MD.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you could choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Barclay provides medically supervised detox services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

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