Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Enid, MS.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you may choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Enid provides medical detox, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days 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 substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab center to work on their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
