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

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you can decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Wabash provides medical detoxification services, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has a history 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 recovery facility to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
