Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Miami, AZ.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Miami offers medical detox, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab program to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
