Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Magna, UT.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you might choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Magna offers medically managed detox, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person 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 treatment center to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
