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

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you could choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Spencerville provides medically supervised detox, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People 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 health.

For an individual who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation facility to handle their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
