Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Houck, AZ.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you can choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Houck provides medical detoxification services, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery program to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
