Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Winnisquam, NH.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you could make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Winnisquam offers medically managed detox services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms 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 a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab center to handle their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
