Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Eagle Lake, FL.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you can choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Eagle Lake provides medically managed detox, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious 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 used to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People 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 drug 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 an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation program to handle their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
