Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Clam Lake, WI.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you may decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Clam Lake provides medically managed detox, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehab program to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
