Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Siler City, NC.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you might decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Siler City provides medically supervised detox services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance 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 easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab facility to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
