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

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you may make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Sheridan provides medical detox services, which is conducted with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay 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 a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab facility to treat their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
