Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Jal, NM.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you might make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Jal provides medical detoxification services, which is conducted with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation facility to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
