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

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you could make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Fordyce provides medically supervised detox services, which is administered with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could 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 a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation facility to treat their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
