Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Lytle, TX.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Lytle provides medical detox, which is conducted with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth 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.
