Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Louann, AR.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Louann offers medically managed detox, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

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