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

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you could make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Deale provides medical detoxification services, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in 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. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehabilitation center to treat their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
