Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Boutte, LA.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you could decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Boutte offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from specific 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 might decide to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental 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 treatment facility to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
