Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Mc Grady, NC.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you could choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Mc Grady offers medically supervised detox services, which is administered with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what 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 an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation facility to handle their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
