Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Marshall, TX.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Marshall provides medically supervised detoxification services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease 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 may 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 been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug treatment program to treat their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
