Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Mulhall, OK.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you may decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Mulhall provides medically managed detox, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery program to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
