Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Van Vleck, TX.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you may decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Van Vleck offers medically supervised detox services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has been struggling 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 and/or alcohol rehab program to work on their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
