Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Salt Flat, TX.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you may make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Salt Flat provides medical detox services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment facility to work on their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
