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

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you could choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Lucama provides medical detox services, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox 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 drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab program to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
