Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Mineral, TX.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Mineral offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation program to treat their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
