Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Linden, NC.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you might make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Linden provides medically managed detox services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehabilitation program to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
