Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Princeton, NC.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you may choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Princeton offers medically supervised detox services, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has been struggling 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 recovery center to treat their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
