Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Newman Lake, WA.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you might make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Newman Lake provides medically managed detoxification services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing 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 detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation center to work on their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
