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

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you may decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Clinton offers medical detox services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay 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 health.

For an individual who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment facility to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
