Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Ace, TX.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you can decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Ace offers medically supervised detox services, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms 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 someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment facility to handle their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
