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

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Riverside offers medically managed detox, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where 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 remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehabilitation center to treat their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
