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

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you might make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Glenmora offers medical detox services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall 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 and/or alcohol rehab center to treat their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
