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

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you can choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Eldersburg provides medically managed detoxification services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation center to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
