Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Midkiff, TX.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you might choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Midkiff offers medically supervised detox, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery facility to handle their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
