Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Alford, FL.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you could make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Alford provides medical detox, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehab center to treat their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
