Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Mount Olive, NC.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you may decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Mount Olive provides medical detoxification services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment program to work on their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
