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

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you might decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Tuckerman provides medical detox services, which is administered with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug treatment facility to treat their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
