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

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you might make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Warne offers medically managed detox services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For an individual 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 rehab facility to treat their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
