Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Lonsdale, AR.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you might decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Lonsdale offers medical detoxification services, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab center to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
