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

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you may make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Kings Mountain offers medical detox services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab program to handle their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
