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

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you could choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Paradise Valley provides medical detox, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification 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 withdrawing 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 smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab facility to treat their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
