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

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Tortilla Flat offers medically managed detox, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab program to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
