Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Swifton, AR.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Swifton provides medically supervised detox, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

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