Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Boonville, NC.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you might decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Boonville offers medically managed detox, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehab center to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
