Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Little Rock, IA.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you could decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Little Rock provides medically supervised detoxification services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals 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 drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery center to handle their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
