Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Amagon, AR.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you might decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Amagon offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment facility to handle their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
