Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Deerfield, WI.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Deerfield provides medically managed detoxification services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation facility to treat their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
