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

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you could choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Fox offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation center to handle their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
