Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Oppelo, AR.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you could make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Oppelo offers medically managed detox, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form 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 type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation facility to work on their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
