Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - North Miami, FL.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in North Miami offers medically supervised detox, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery facility to handle their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
