Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Arcadia, FL.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you may choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Arcadia provides medically supervised detoxification services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of 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, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation facility to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
