Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Altha, FL.

Detoxification is the first stage 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 Altha provides medically supervised detoxification services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment facility to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
