Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Southside Place, TX.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you might make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Southside Place offers medical detox services, which is administered with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing 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 an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment program to handle their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
