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

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you could choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Malone offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is performed with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment program to work on their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
