Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Dalworthington Gardens, TX.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you might make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Dalworthington Gardens provides medically managed detox services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation center to work on their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
