Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Hallsboro, NC.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Hallsboro provides medical detoxification services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation center to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
