Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Hoxie, AR.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you could make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Hoxie offers medical detox services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation center to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
