Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Tennyson, TX.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you can decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Tennyson provides medical detox, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. 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 easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab program to treat their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
