Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Crumpton, MD.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you could decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Crumpton provides medical detox, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

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