Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Mountainburg, AR.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you might make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Mountainburg provides medical detox, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help 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 could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual 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 treatment program to work on their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
