Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you could make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Gonzales provides medical detox services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.
For an individual who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment center to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
