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

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Seminole offers medical detox services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug recovery center to treat their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
