Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Skellytown, TX.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Skellytown provides medically managed detox, which is carried out with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal 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 an individual who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab facility to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
