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

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you can decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Thicket offers medically managed detoxification services, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox 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 drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment program to handle their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
