Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Calypso, NC.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you can decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Calypso offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is carried out 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 might benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but typically 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 someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab center to work on their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
