Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Langley, AR.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you may choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Langley offers medically managed detox services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation program to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
