Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Sasakwa, OK.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you may choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Sasakwa offers medical detox, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab center to work on their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
