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

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you might choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Vian offers medical detoxification services, which is administered with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab program to treat their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
