Facts
- Rapid opiate detoxification to treat opiate withdrawal can be performed in a hospital or private clinic setting using a drug such as Naltrexone, an opiate antagonist that blocks opiate receptors and reverses the effects of opiates. Clonidine is administered at the same time to ease the symptoms of withdrawal.
- Withdrawal is most commonly used to describe the onset of the group of symptoms that occurs upon the abrupt discontinuation/separation or a decrease in dosage of the intake of medications, recreational drugs, and alcohol.
- The total number of drug-related emergency room visits rose over 80 percent from 2004 (2.5 million) to 2009 (4.6 million).
- Some addicted individuals may be uncertain about entering drug rehab treatment and every step must be taken to take advantage of available services the moment individuals are ready for treatment to commence.
GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
A person who is heavily addicted to drugs or alcohol will benefit greatly by receiving treatment from a hospital inpatient rehab program. These types of programs are geared towards physical health, mental health and medical stabilization. Recovering persons will have access to medication as well as medical staff around the clock. While not every drug addict requires this level of care, it is beneficial to those who have severe physical addiction problems to drugs or alcohol. Hospital inpatient programs commonly last several days to several weeks. Once the inpatient portion of their recovery is complete they may choose to participate at a sober living setting or transfer into an outpatient program.
