Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Graham, TX.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Graham provides medically supervised detox, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery center to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
