Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Fort White, FL.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you might make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Fort White provides medically managed detoxification services, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could 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 a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment program to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
