Detoxification is the first step of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you might choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Pence Springs offers medical detox, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.
For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug treatment facility to handle their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
