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

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you could make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Red Rock offers medically managed detox services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment program to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
