Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Loyal, OK.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you might make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Loyal provides medical detoxification services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. 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 been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation center to treat their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
