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

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you could make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Wanchese provides medical detoxification services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox 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 type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab program to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
